Wow, I see what you mean... I would never have considered my chicks to look anything like an actual Lemon-Blue (or Lemon-Black, as the case may be). The reddish-gold coloring is way too bright, in my opinion.
Thanks for letting me know!

Hmmm... Yes, that chick does look a great deal like mine, except that it has blue instead of black. I guess my chicks are Buff/Blacks.
Thanks for helping me figure it out!
I have 12 5½-week-old cochin chicks, hatched from eggs that I purchased from a local breeder. The parents were a black roo over a blue hen, so I expected to get only black or blue chicks. As luck would have it... Of the 12 eggs that hatched, only one chick is blue and most are black or mostly...
