Yay a fellow Aussie, No I don't have splash because I breed with a black rooster to blue and black hens. I do this as it allows me to get blues of a darker colour with crisper lacing like those above. If you breed blue to blue or blue to splash, the quality of blue suffers. I sell breeding trios and pairs of blue each season though so if someone purchases a trio or pair they can breed splash if they then want to. Also splashes can look dirty very quickly as well. I sell limited numbers of breeding trios and pairs in black and blue. If you know of anyone who would like to purchase a pair or trio of blues or blacks or a mixture of both I can put their name down. Don't have any at the moment but I will in a few months. I also have a utility strain and an exhibition strain. Utility strain are more for egg laying rather than showing and my exhibition strain are also good egg layers but they would be considered breeding stock that conform to the standards. My blues also come from the original line of Blue Australorps in Western Australia. The last black pullet pictured is also from that line. She is a stunner.
