Quote: They look pretty good. Much better than most "lav orps" I see.

Quote: Actually Lavender is a "self-blue" gene and should only be bred into blacks not carrying other modifier or recessive genes. For more info than you would ever want (though pretty easy to read)... http://kippenjungle.nl/basisEN.htm
