    I do but it would be spring. They are a project pen for making Blue Partridge and I don't have a reg partridge cock just blue partridge so 50/50 on color... well I think I have a blue hen so might get some splash too.

    You can look him up on BYC or the net. I don't have any good pictures since I have not been selling them and they are molting now.

    Dick Horstman.... not sure if he is selling any this year or not. I have his stock and am using them to make Blue Partridge (5th or 6th generation into them). I will have some in the spring I am sure. Not laying right now. He also has Silver Penciled Rocks too.

    I don't think you have a barred rock there. She is a dominique with that rose comb.

    It could be a genetic defect. Could he have been feather picked? I have several roosters that get that when they are with a lot of other roosters.

    My rocks are my best layers next to WL. Eggs are not as big as others but they lay almost everyday. If you cross a RIR cock with a BR you will get black sex links.

    I don't think so. It looks like a cross of some sort but no idea what.

    I have never hard of that color in Rocks. Do you mean silver penciled plymouth rocks? This is a SL Wyandotte does she look like this? Or does she look like this a Penciled Rock pullet.

    What is a SLP? I am not familiar with that acronym. I don't find my Rocks to be especially broody. I don't let chicken hatch chicks I just can't accommodate all the broodies. Just don't let her have eggs she will give up eventually. I have broken them a few ways. once I just took her out...

    cuckoo Marans.... rocks don't have feathered legs or white skin. It could be a cross something is off but not sure what.

    Yes you can breed away from that. Solid color birds have the issue more than patterns. I know that barring will hide the color in the legs.

    Doms have a ROSE Comb. Pea combs look totally different. Rose combs will have spikes on them or bumps (looks different in different breeds. That bird looks like a Dom with a rose comb.
