Sad to see you go. But you'll be back. Cochins crawl into your heart, and I'm sure someday you'll run accross those perfect birds that ya just gotta have.

Good luck to you, and enjoy your warm winter.

What a neat color.
Is that color also called self blue or laverder?
I'm having some eggs hatched for me now that I was told are lavender.

I actually do not know if they are self blues or lavender

, but I assumed they were lavender.

What makes them better? can you tell that I know nothing about "type"?

Self-blue and Lavender are the same - the gene is lav.
