ups, then there is no term of gray for chicken?

i just learn it here, never learn it from school.

they looked too old when having beard.

but they're sure cute when have it.

I don't know why they started calling gray 'blue' but it's fun telling people I have blue chickens. They always ask "Do you dye them?"

This kind of chicken not only has a beard and feathered feet, but they have a different kind of voice, too. So when I come in the pen and don't have treats they follow me around chortling and scolding like a bunch of old women!
But then they cuddle with me anyway. My blue girls and millies love hugs and chin scratches but the boys play tough and stand back.

You don't want these, Mulia. They are eye-candy, pet chickens. They lay small eggs and not very dependably. Their value is because they are pretty and sociable.

You need tough survivors, not spoiled lap chickens!

Although, if I could send you some hatching eggs I would!

Thanks, Luvducks! I think they're beautiful too, but admit to having a considerable bias
