WOW!!!! He is very impressive! Good thing he has a nice disposition and likes to cuddle, you might be in trouble otherwise.

WOW!!!!~~~~~She is gorgeous and so is he. I don't see how you could go wrong with that breeding.

Quote: You might want to go check out the Cochin thread right now. There are some outstanding Lemon-Blues on there. If you want to see true Lemon-Blue you owe it to yourself.

Are you aware that lemon/blue can never breed true? If you breed lemon blue to lemon blue you'll get splash and ??? not sure what. Don't know what the "lemon" does when bred to itself. Two dilutes bred together just produce double dilutes which is generally pretty washed out. If you breed to a...

I'm an avid cochin person and I believe in working to improve the already established varieties that exist, but I...

Quote: Isn't lemon-blue produced the same way in ALL breeds? It's not really an "experimental color." Evidently there is an actual formula to get lemon-blue, the skill is in getting good type, pattern, etc. You're always going to get stuck with cast offs or culls because you've got birds from...

OK, but am I being dense or missing the obvious? What is he genetically? a mutation, or some kind of doubling or "building" of genes? In other words, can he be reproduced? BTW he is drop dead gorgeous. He looks like an advanced form of a "Candy Corn" project or whatever it's called now.
