    Suggestions for Backyard Mixes

    If you get a ameraucana rooster and cross with the legbar hens you will get some fun mixes with some fun crests and Barring . You will have blue and green eggs. The olive egger rooster makes predicting the outcome more difficult as previous poster said . Good luck and have fun.
