I do not own Cubalayas, but I will be following this thread because they are one of my favorites when it comes to appearance.

Chick down was very similar to brownred.Did she have a chipmunk pattern as a chick?
The color looks like a blue wheaten. He has pearl legs, a good pea comb and smallish wattles which is good.It feels like I'm posting some scraggly goblin compared to all of the beautiful birds in this thread. I just bought this guy yesterday off my local craigslist. I suspect he's been abused or neglected at the very least. Supposedly he's a blue cubalaya around a year of age
What do you all think? Here he is in a box coming home and outside of my back door cannibalizing some eggs. I'm hoping he'll regain some vitality on my land

That behaviour is consistent with Cubalaya temperament.I am so incredibly impressed by this year old cubalaya rooster's behavior. He immediately started protecting the hens, finding them food and assisting the brooding mothers. Right now he's sitting on a clutch of eggs so that one of the two mothers can take a break
The door to my coop is always open and I've never even seen another rooster enter it

Thank you for the information you provided. Here he is standing around on alert, and another one of him watching hens eat. I hope these images workCould you post a picture of him at alert with a full body shot from the side? It give us a better perspective on his type.
