Bought an assortment of chicks a few months ago from MurryMcMurray and I'm not sure what these are. I was kinda thinking that they were whiting true blues but aren't they supposed to have pea combs. The rooster also looks similar to an Amber link?

Whiting Tru Blu. They all look different, no standard comb type

McMurray says Whiting True Blues have a pea comb. (It also says they have varied feather colors and leg colors.)

For the pullets, you will know a lot more when they start laying eggs!

The cockerel (3rd photo) looks like a Red Star or Amber Star cockerel. Both kinds of cockerels have that coloring, even though the pullets of the two kinds look different.

Is it true that the true blues are homozygous for blue eggs?

McMurray says they are. Hopefully they are right!
