No but I have thought about making some. What would you cross with the BCM a blue, black or a splash hen

Blue. Hopefully something good happens next spring

Yes I think I will do the crosses next spring maybe this winter if they keep laying pretty well. I’m also going to do the same cross but with Crested cream Legbar hens to make some olive eggers that have a bigger egg than the Legbar lay. I have a couple of those and they lay well.

Black Copper Marans x Blue Isbar would produce 50% blue and 50% black chicks. Hens will lay olive colored eggs. Males will have some red leakage especially in the wing bars.
