I was lucky enough to keep a couple blue wheaten cockerels this year that have the clean hackles like the one you got.  Yeah!!  I also have a couple wheatens with pretty clean hackles, not as good as the blue wheatens, but close.

pips&peeps :

Can you make it to the Ohio Nationals?  It is our National Club meet and I bet there will be some birds for sale then.


I am thinking about it what are the dates exactly I might be able to make it if its on a weekend. That would be amazing driving home with a car full of birds no doubt. tongue

Beautiful Birds everyone keep up the great work!

He is a Wheaten...looks just like my Wheaten boy did.  Blue wheatens have blue in place of the black.  Here are a couple pics of the difference.

She is good so far, very skittish but holds her own!  big_smile  I don't know if she is a blue or regular wheaten though.  What is the difference between the two?  She seems to have some black tail feathers.
