Gem or Giant?

My sapphire was a big girl...

Looks like a Sapphire Gem.

Maybe Sapphire gems grow fast?

Ya, your technically right, but they were made in the Czech Republic, so they are Czech

Looks like a SG to me.
SGs I'd say are technically Czech. Dominant-cz came up with them and Hoovers directly imported their parental stock through Dominant-cz

They do have blue Jersey Giants.

I got 2 Blue Australorps last June from a breeder. They turned out to be Blue Jersey Giants. Not what I wanted, but I like them anyway. They are as big, or nearly so, at 5 months as my 18 month Black Australorps are.

From what I hear, Sapphires are layers, mine laid well, but they don't live to be 10.

I mainly like sapphire gems because there a Czech breed or "hybrid" and I have Czech in my heritage

I love that!

I got a Naked Neck, a Lavender Orpington, and an Appenzeller Spitzhauben from a TSC bin labeled "Blue Andalusians." I knew they weren't Andalusians (esp the Naked Neck - lol), but I wanted them anyway.

That’s cool!

I am calling them "jersey gems" until further notice.
