The eggs were supposed to be barnvelders, cream legbars, and opal legbars. He came from a blue egg so legbar. There doesn't appear to be a touch of legbar in him the way he looks, at least to me. She won't respond to any messages. I've been trying for months. I'm waiting to see an ad with her eggs for sale again. I'll be saying something...
Thank you! I mean EVERYONE loves him. If I did want to rehome him, I don't think I'd have to worry about the crockpot! He is a pretty boy!
Polish was one breed she never said she had for what that's worth. They did come from light blue eggs, the color that CCLs lay.
Absolutely
Oh wow! I could understand a mix up or 2 when all the eggs look similar on a big order but for the whole order to be this off base and for her to be ghosting you is not cool! Did you pay with a credit card? Maybe you can dispute the charge through them. And yeah I'd agree the pea comb, muffs and beard would say (to me atleast I'm not super experienced) its easter egger or some kind of ameraucana mix. I hope you get some sort of resolution!
I paid cash, of course. It is what it is. At least I managed to get six healthy babies out of the bunch. Just sucks that I paid pretty much double what bym eggs should be. I don't seem to have the luck with getting what I'm supposed to. My BCM babies turned out to be just Marans of some sort, solid black, no copper, but dark eggs. The other CCLs turned grey. Those where from Hoovers, so not someone's backyard. Can't win! Lol
Have you tried ordering from Murray McMurray? A fair number of folks recommended them when I was looking for those breeds. I got a nice FBCM hen and a pair of CCL from them, and they turned out fine. Of course, the FBCM was supposed to be a rooster, so that messed up my breeding plan, and she would lay 2-3 eggs a week for about six weeks and take a month or so off. But I think that may be par for the course for FBCM, and I only had the one hen.
