Solsken Farm....you talk too soon ...... might be completely wrong
Maybe Blackdotte, Henk 69, or some of the others will tell us
& I don't know quite what causes the little dark tips the feathers. I could make a few guesses.
Michigan Woods,
EEs seem to have so many colours all mixed up it is rather difficult to say what might be in them.
I don't think those birds have columbian. My guess would be.... eWh//e+ S//- amongst others.
Don't the wheatens carry a columbian gene? When I have crossed buff with wheatens I occassionally get buff cockerels with black hackles and dark tail feathers.
The wheatens probably don't have columbian but buffs will.
I don't think columbian gene & the white skin gene have known linkage do they?
Light Sussex have white legs & silver columbian plumage.
One could make an ameraucana with slate legs & columbian plumage.
