I will totally keep this in mind if these end up barnevelder. I also snagged one of the Olive Eggers from them. She tried to give me the grey ones as well and I said no that’s not right lolI have 2 of the Barnevelders, in that bin were 3 varieties: blue olive Eggers, spangled Russian orloffs, & the barnevelders.. I'm now confident I have 2 barnevelders, 4 Russian orloffs, 2 blue olive Eggers & 2 barred rock (which were in a different trough).. I only wanted 2 of the Russians and although none in the trough looked like how I thought they should, by default I had picked 2 of the dark stripey ones bc I knew what the barnevelders looked like & what the blue olive Eggers should look like but the lady that worked there tripped me up saying the dark striped ones were the olive Eggers so I put 2 grey ones back and got 2 more dark stripey.. now the 4 stripey ones are turning yellow and dark dappled etc and I found a pic labeled "spangled Russian orloffs" that look just like them
Anywhoo.. if you ever decide yours is a Barnevelder and you're mad you didn't actually get a Russian ID gladly trade you bc now I have 4!
