It is a GL just as blue as can be so was thinking it was the Gold Lace Blue since our hens are Gold Lace BlueHave more to go in lockdown tomorrow see what they hatch. I was thinking that crossing with black would take 3 gen but wasn't sure how the lacing works Thank you for your knowledge it's...
Thank you so much!! See the blue one? Guessing you can tell which are Gold Lace Blue & Gold Lace Black at hatch? Wonder if it will get harder to tell blue from black as they grow? I was thinking the cinnamon ones are quite dark too, but I'm looking at them with an amateur eye...so much to learn...
