OK, I got it .... it IS a splash! Dried and fluffy, and it is a splash! The others are black, no blues. Thanks, the pictures helped alot!

Sometimes, Kathy, a dark blue one will fool me for quite awhile. If they don't end up with green sheen in their plumage, it's what some call "dull black" or just dark blue. I think the splashes are the cutest.

YAY Splashes are awesome! Watch those blacks because Athena looked black for several weeks before we determined she was a blue.

see:

1 week old

It was 3 weeks before she was clearly blue

Oh, wow! Now I think I might have all three colors then!

I have to take some pictures. I just haven't had time, and now I am at work.

Best news is ... a girl at work bought the Turkens! YAY, the Turkens have gone to their new home!

Congrats on being Turken-less, Kathy, LOL. Not my cup of tea, either.

 

[Cetawin]

Congrats on re-homing the turkens. See what I mean about the blacks? LOL

Turkens? Are they those gawdawful things with no feathers on their head or neck? Guuuuck!!! Sorry to anyone to fancies them. No offense intended. I just prefer my chickens to look like...well....CHICKENS!!!

Cetawin, once you're all settled in your new digs, any chance of convincing you to send me a few of Thor and Athena's eggs?

Please? Please? Pwettty Pweeese?!?! With sugar on top?

Lordy what a beautiful pair they are going to make! And the babies are going to be drop dead gorgeous!!!

Sure I will. He is gonna have some other big women too....a splash cochin, a red cochin, 2 BOs and maybe an Aussie or 2. Once I figure out what Athena is going to lay, I can separate hers
