Wow Henry, they are AMAZING! That lightest splash pullet looks lavender!

I ended up with 12/14 hatched from Dicks eggs!!

Thanks I love them they are just so beautiful! I actually like the injured blue hen she is so sweet I hope she recovers she is so sweet she walks right up to the crate door and clucks at me. I love that light splash pullet she is so much bigger then the others.

Wish such a large peacomb and that pink color I still think male also having so much blue makes me think either blue or splash male.

I will take whatever I get. Im surprised for a male that it is such a skittish guy. It hides behind his brother, the black one behind him in the tree all the time.

Henry I agree that last photo of the splash Fav is the best one, looks more lavender colored to me.

Congratulations on the new birds!!!!!!!!!!

Now, Henry, don't forget to keep blue out of your lavenders! With that last pic of the splash pullet you can see how easy it can be to confuse lavender with splash, and having blue and lavender in the same bird can make it even harder!

Absolutely! I will not be mixing them at all I an going to pair breed or trio breed for lavender so my lav rooster will be over two black hens or pullet and I will band the chicks to keep them out of my regular BBS program.
