Hey, this is Iko. He's just under a year old. I know that his color isn't great--while he has really striking green sheen to his feathers, he also has purple as well as green, and he has some gold/brown feathers around his face. How does he look otherwise?
I don't plan on showing him, just having him as flock rooster, but I'd love to know how his conformation compares to others just in case I decide to hatch any eggs from him.
Also, for what it's worth, is there any way to know in advance if a black roo carries any genes for blue? I have a splash Ameraucana hen and I was curious if I could get blue from the mating.
Many thanks!
