Introduction To Breed

a. Cross Breed
A cross-breed is a chicken which had parents of different breeds. These cannot be shown. When selling, they can be sold (if, say, the parents were turkens and silkies) as turken/silkie crosses
d

b. Mutts
A mutt is a chicken where one or more of the parents were cross-breeds or mutts themselves. These cannot be shown. They are often sold as 'barnyard selection' or mutts.

However, some people confuse these two words. When you buy or breed a cross-breed or mutt, you don't know what you are getting, and so can get some interesting looking birds.

c. Hybrids
Hybrids are chickens that are not real breeds. They have been developed to serve one of two purposes: either producing large amounts of meat or eggs. They are produced in boring colours (usually white for meat and brown for eggs) and often do not breed true (meaning that the offspring will not look the same as the parents) like standardised breeds.

Tahun Baru...Azam Baru

Tahun baru 2009 dah mula pon, azam baru pon dh dapat. Rasanya goal tahun ni nak sambung bajar semula, nak larikan diri dari fikir dan buat benda yang sama cam tahun lepas. Sekarang ni kena cari topik sesuai utk propose kat 'boss' supaya leh dijadikan research. Kalo semua ni berjalan seperti yg dirancangkan, peringkat seterusnya kena let-go seberapa byk ayam n itik yg boleh. Tinggalkan sepasang dua je utk baka sbb nnt2 mak n ayah yg kena take-over. i cannot let them susah2 lak. Lagipon, kalo let-go semua, nnt nak invest semula bukan senang, dan sayang kat depa ni. If ada kawan2 yg sggp tlg jagakan sementara 2 3 tahun pon takpe gak, janji bila graduate nnt my original breed of chickens ada. Tahun 2008 betui2 beri pengajaran dan peringatan. Duit sng dapat, sng abis. Accident je ntah berapa kali, sib baik tader yg teruk2, meaning tuhan bagi peringatan suh ingat kat Dia. Ayam itik plak, macam2 masalah timbul...sng dapat, senang ilang. Ntah berapa kali terduduk dan berfikir "kenapa leh jadi camni". Rasa lonely pon ada. Rasa ketinggalan pon ada. Semua dah bercampur aduk. Silap haribulan leh giler dibuatnya. Bila jadi camni, semua rasa tak betui, semua rasa tak kena, darah cepat je naik, mengamuk2 pon ada. Arghhhhh...tension betui! Seblum terlambat, seblum otak beku, seblum makin tua, lebih baik amik langkah berani dan maju ke depan. Kalopun kali ni kena sain loan dgn ptptn pon takpe dah, sok2 leh cari jalan nak byr semula duit depa tu. Janji i moving forward.Kalo dulu leh berani benti keje sbb nak sambung degree, why not kali ni.Biar giler sbb otak terlebih pikir utk belajar, drpd jd giler sbb pikir benda ntah apa2..huhuhu.
