Hello BYC Fam!
Anyone have pics of their Blue or Splash jersey giant roosters? I have a pair I got from the hatchery. They are supposed to both be blue, but I am thinking my male must be splash, because he is a much lighter blue color than the female (who is a very dark, almost black "blue"). I did some research because I was confused by the extreme color difference. I've only ever had black JG's, but the girl looked almost totally black to me. Now that ive seen some more pictures of "blue" JG's, I'm thinking that the blue is kind of a dark blue, I guess. Ill try to get pictures of the pair later on today for reference. I was reading a bit on color genetics and saw that two blues bred together have a chance at producing some splash colors, and I'm just now wondering if thats what I got.
Cheers!
