Cornish Thread

L A Clukin, that does appear to be blue and red to me. There are others here more qualified than me to tell you whether that is a BLR Cornish bantam or not if that is what you are asking..

 

[Lots A Cluckin]

thanks!...and yes that is what I am asking

 

[aviangems]

Yeah that is a blue laced red or a crapped out white laced red

 

[aviangems]

Actually it looks like a "splash" laced red with 2 blue genes.

Did you see the parents?

Was up to Dad's a week or so back. He had decided it was time to give up his Cornish (large fowl whites), and had contacted a local guy who has meddled in Cornish for several years. I went up to help catch and load the birds. Of the 8 female and 5 males, one female did have a slightly orangish cast to her eye, the rest had good clean light eyes, a few had a almost blue white eye. For the first time in over fifty years there are no Cornish on his place, or chickens of any kind for that matter. But I have a half dozen or so young chicks I hatched late out of his birds (wearing rings) running with my youngsters if he should get to feeling better. Or if he feels like taking a walk on the wild side I could set him up with some colored birds that could use some work.

His color is STUNNING!

Sorry to hear about your dad not keeping his birds, but we will all meet that day ourselves. I hope he is doing well enough though.

Come to your own conclusions.

Mine looks alot like your last one...but mines blue is just a bit lighter...mines blue color is like the blue on the tip of yours tail...if that makes any sense

 

[Minniechickmama]

You need some Splash to intensify the lacing, I think. But WHOA! Hunka Hunka, I love your birds, Av!
