Hmmm mine look very splashy! I'll get some pictures later when I get them back. Right now they are "volunteering" at a care home for seniors with memory loss

I think he's pretty! And from this angle its hard to tell but he looks to have a nice heart shape body. His red coloring is nice and deep. But I'm still new to wyandottes. He sure makes me want to get some partridges though!

Oh sorry I misread you. So the splash you can usually tell and the black and blue are a little trickier.
Black is unusual, splash and blue are easy to tell.
Light beige body down usually means splash. Brown body with dark brown stripes is usually blue. Black, is anyones guess until they feather out, and then, you think its black, but if the under down is not black, then its still a blue.
I have to comment on how stinky my chicks are today! Once I got upstairs to post that pic, I realized I had blood on my hand and I wasn't bleeding (I assume one of the girls got a cut). I went downstairs and it smells like a barn today in my laundry room! The sand in their "fry pan" is fresh and therefore wet...they love it that way and I rarely see them use it after it dries out, but man are they stinky because they're wet! We don't normally notice any "smell"...my Mother was here for a week and was impressed at how much they didn't smell!
I couldn't find any wounds when I went to check on them...I'll go again in a little while and see if there's an issue I need to deal with.
