Fell down the rabbit hole on chicken colors and got stumped by this breed. I know how BBS works. Its the other genes Im curious about. The roosters...appear birchen?? Or some of them do. Some of them have beautiful silvery-white or yellowy-gold feathers down their backs. But I saw a blue rooster with glossy black feathers all down his back, not a hint of silver or white or gold or red in sight. Additionally, the hens appear to be all solid. They don't look birchen to me.
Anyone have an explanation for this conundrum? I'm admittedly far from an expert on chicken colors. They're gorgeous birds whatever color they are lol. I'd be curious what comes up when they're crossbred...
