I agree, too much comb and visible wattles for that age...

I was thinking the same thing.

It happens to all of us, lol. If you can go back and edit to remove the pics from the multiple posts it'l be easier for people to scroll past them...

Really nice!

I agree...

You should read the info on this page...there you will find most, if not all the answers to your questions. http://www.foleyswaterfowl.com/blrwyandotte.htm They also have put out an ebook on breeding BLRW: http://www.foleyswaterfowl.com/

I don't speak for everyone here, just myself. Based on what you have told us about your birds, I probably wouldn't keep any of them for breeding, you've told us 1. The lacing is very light (darker blue is desirable), 2. The red is "buttery looking", most likely not mahogany (mahogany is what you...

So what exactly are you showing us? I'm sorry but I couldn't follow any of your last post.

It is probably a mix. Leg color is off as well.

It looks like it might be, but I wouldn't rule out a lighter blue...

Very nice!!

Fast vs. slow feathering can be a sex-linked trait in the first generation, but not the second. So you really need to know how they were bred to know for sure. Just like sex-links bred together do not produce more sex-links, it is the same with fast vs.slow feathering. So, you can make an...

Seriously, it is way too early to tell.

It is incompletely dominant, a blue bird is always heterozygous at that locus, therefore it will never produce the same as itself 100% of the time. It's just not biologically possible.

Are you talking about type, or about blue color genetics? Cause there's no amount of breeding or isolating that will change how blue is produced...

Not sure I understand what you mean, how does it not breed true?

That is the worst. I'm probably going to have to do that with my Australorps

Probably not the best place to ask then, this is a thread for people owning & breeding pure BLRW, not many of us would spend the time or money to raise crossed Wyandottes, though in some other breeds crossing varieties is something you might do to improve type, I don't think it's commonly done...

DMRippy, can you show us a pic of your roo? There's only a hint of him in that pic and I'd love to see the rest of him!
