    Name That Breed: pale yellow pullet with black flecks

    I understand this, but I’m presuming that there isn’t much difference in terms of genetics/traits between a mix of two breeds that has been deemed an official breed and a mix of two breeds that has not - the offspring should have genetics that are a mix of the two in either case, I would think...

    Name That Breed: pale yellow pullet with black flecks

    She does look like a California white! I just read a few articles on them. Interestingly, they are a mix of leghorn + California grey. And California grey is a mix of leghorn + barred rock. So many mixes! 😅 I think it’s safe to say that she is part leghorn, mixed with some other bird with darker...

    Name That Breed: pale yellow pullet with black flecks

    She does resemble that breed! Thanks for the tip. Smokey Pearl isn’t on the list of options at our local hatchery, but that breed appears to be a random mix, too. I think it’s safe to say that what we have is a mix of breeds… I guess we’ll get more hints once she starts laying!

    Name That Breed: pale yellow pullet with black flecks

    In my local chicken group someone else suggested that she might be a prairie bluebell from Hoover’s. It looks like that’s their version of Blue Azure (which they don’t sell). Both are a mix of leghorn + a blue egg layer (araucana in the case of prairie bluebell)… prairie bluebell can come in...

    Azure blue

    This has been a very interesting thread, Thanks all for sharing! We have what I think is an azure blue. She was supposed to be a buff orp but she looks just like other blue azures I’ve seen in pictures. She is our most gentle, friendly bird - great with kids, and probably my favourite chicken of...

    Another person I asked suggested blue azure! I’d never heard of that breed but his chickens look just like mine !

    Name That Breed: pale yellow pullet with black flecks

    I see that you’re right - most don’t seem to have yellow legs, but I just found this pic online of a splash orp and this one has yellow shanks! I wonder if they are always white?

    Name That Breed: pale yellow pullet with black flecks

    4 of the 5 breeds we got from them match the breeds we ordered.. it’s just this one that I’m confused about! 😅

    Name That Breed: pale yellow pullet with black flecks

    Breed question: I purchased a buff Orpington chick from our local Peaveymart (Hoover’s). It seems that we were given a different breed, but I’m unsure of what she might be! Anyone have ideas based on her current 6-week-old appearance? She was a yellow chick with black flecks (see last two...

    Comment by 'ChickenLittle2023' in article 'Misconceptions About Curved Tail Feathers in Easter Egger Juveniles'

    EDIT: This little guy started crowing mere hours after I composed this message. Leaving my comment here anyway in case it might help anyone else with a similar-looking EE. He is indeed a HE! I’ve seen many pics of cockerels with rusty feathers in their wings, but what about if the chicken is...
