Best Quality Breeder? (SOP)

[WallacetheKhakiCampbell]

okay, here's the situation now...

I found a breeder with INCREDIBLE birds (eye of the rooster farm), he's got beyond SOP silver laced wyandottes and really cool self blue ameraucanas which I just discovered that I like more than the blue wheaten. So now, I just have to decide between the two . What do y'all think I should do. I LOVE the silver laced pattern a lot but I would also love to get a whole ton of blue eggs and from blue chickens with big fluffy beards. I have no idea what to do

Some of each see problem solved.
Isn’t self blue and lavender the same thing?

I guess I could but they have a min of 8 and I already have way to many chickens. 16 would far exceed my limit.

And yes it is. One of my favorite colors in chickens (thats why I just learned I really liked the self blue as I didn't know it was just lavender)

I don't know if anyone cares but Im so excited and my family doesn't understand why (they don't really know anything related to chickens other than the stuff I briefly tell them)

I ordered 8 SLW and 2 White Ameraucanas!!!!!!!!!!!

They didn't have Lavender Ameraucanas at the moment but will later this summer.

He also said they always add 1-2 other chicks of either the same type or other hatching around the same time. So I could get 1-2 of any of these:

BLRW
SLW
Chocolate Mottled English Orps
White Ameraucanas
Lavender cuckoo Leghorns
Red mottled leghorns

Not a bad list!!

Chocolate Mottled English Orps are beautiful.

I saw their SLW last night, and-

I don’t know how the compare to the SOP, but that lacing- MAN so crisp.

Ikr, its really incredible. I told myself I would keep looking but there was no way I was going to get anything else

If dragonfly farms in nc they have very nice birds! I have and will do more business with kim and john.

Did you get eggs or chicks? I want some of their blue laced red whandottes
