I love the blue birds, and blue eggs too. I have EEs and Barred Rocks - they were supposed to be all pullets, and now at 20 weeks, I think they are. If I were to get a rooster, and wanted blue chickens that would lay blue eggs, from my reading here I think my best bet would be a splash blue true Americauna.
Is this correct? From what I can tell, the Splash is what we call in horses homozygous for the blue (feather) gene. But, would a splash Americauna be homozygous for the blue egg gene? (OO), or would there be a chance it was herterozygous (Oo)?
