Are red combs always a laying sign

[NatJ]

I had 3 WLR, 2 BLR and 1 Dark. When I still had the BLR, the dark was the smallest. Still is by a good weight differenxe. However, my WLR pictured are even smaller than the one not pictured. She is a very chunky bird

Thanks!

I think you may be surprised by the eggs of the White Laced Reds--mine laid eggs just as large as many "large fowl" chickens do! But the little Spangled hen (looked like Dark but with mottling) laid little tiny bantam-sized eggs. The egg sizes were even more different than the bird sizes.

That's what I thought too, but my other three just have the rose pink color still too. I don't know how red they get. My hybrids are my only hens that ever got super dark red when they were laying

Most of mine are pretty red, but had a few that weren't vibrant even when laying.
