I say Blue... two shots of Blue(Bl/Bl) are going to dilute her Melanized(Ml) hackle...

you see Blue(Bl/bl+) has a hard time Diluting Melanotic(Ml/ml+) even in Homozygous form

ohh ok. The breeder i got her from only had blues in his breeding pen. I think he was breeding blues to blues. This hen has way better blue coloring then that hen. I got them both from the same place. Only cost me $10 for the both of them. I want to get a Black roo to breed to them

Quote: Probably blue, but I have a very melanized obvious splash cock. I will try to upload my photos (my confuser is not cooperating).

When we bred LF blue sumatras, we got a few that looked like her in the beginning. After a couple generations of breeding to good blacks and selecting for lacing, you'll have nice looking birds

I know this is an old post, but this looks like a cross maybe a Sumatra and a Phoenix and I will say this it is a beautiful bird
