Here is a blue cockerel....with a tiny bit of gold colored feathers in his upper hackle.



Here you can faintly see the gold feathers.


Here is a late hatched blue pullet that I'm liking..

Hello all. Brand new here to cubalaya thread and breed.

Blues are looking very nice JAT.

 

[rambob59]

Thank you. I am in search of good stock. If they are juvies I prefer them here in CA but eggs will do

 

[saladin]

If you are in CA then you need to hook up with Zach. His stock is excellent and you'll find none better in the US.

Okay I sent him a messege. Thanks. I'm really looking forward to having some..

My 5 broody hatched chicks are 2 weeks old now. There are two interesting colored ones I have not hatched before. One is a very red BBR? The other is like wheaten except all the down is white instead of yellow.

Years ago, mine produced a true Ginger Red. He's pictured over at UFF. I've never produced another, until this year. I noticed in the 9 week olds that there is a Ginger Red. I actually hope he lives because I think I'll keep him and see what I can get out of him.

With all the different strains that I collected and crossed I figured I'd get some odd colorations but surprisingly there have been very few. Now I've made some by crossing crow-wings and duck-wings but that's about it except for the Ginger Red.

I'm guessing this one will be an overly red, brown red.
