How do you tell the difference between a blue, splash and Salmon Faverolle pullets. I have some but, I don't know what color they are and I am really curious.

Yes, that would be a splash salmon pullet. Here is one I had.

Looks a lot like the color pattern developing on our splash red Cubalaya.

Now that i have been shown, the above pic being a splash pullet, a Salmon or black Salmon pullet would have black on the wing tip and tail feathers, a blue salmon pullet would have a distinct shade of blue-grey. eliz

Cloverleaf,
Will you be selling shipping hatching eggs from your faverolles next Spring? If so let me know in Jan. I am saving up to buy some. I want a large egg layer, LF type. I do not mind if I get a splash either they are really pretty too. gloria Jean

Cool I can tell my one hen is a splash but, I still don't know about my other one. Does anyone have pics of a blue Salmon and a salmon?

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I thought Salmon Favs were either Black or Blue as a base color. Obviosly the splash show none of these colors and then you have the white favs. But your standard salmons are either blue or black?

I can't get them to transfer from my profile page but I have pics of my LF Salmons on it. Boys are the dark multicolored with a white/offwhite head/neck, the girls are a pinkish tan with white beard/breast. That is a simple description for you.

Look under the default album for the girls pics they are a few weeks old,

Also pages 1040 & 1041 of this thread have some Salmon pics.
