Ok good, I just asked because overo mare said she thought that she saw some barring and to update in a couple weeksThe sapphire gem is a female. The males will get barred feathers.
I don't personally see barring. But, the males will get yellow legs as they grow too.Ok good, I just asked because overo mare said she thought that she saw some barring and to update in a couple weeks
Ok thanksI don't personally see barring. But, the males will get yellow legs as they grow too.
I would still say update in maybe, 2 - 3 weeks.
Ooooo, I would like that!So, I'm pretty sure your white/red pullet is a Starlight Green Egger pullet. Green eggs will cinch it. I wouldn't worry about the comb too much, my SGE girls seemed to have large combs until the others caught up when they all got older. The wattles are small. There's a couple common colors of SGE, and that looks very similar to mine. Hoovers website is not great about showing the variations.

Would this be the same for super blue egg layer? Comb development was fast but she is growing into it.So, I'm pretty sure your white/red pullet is a Starlight Green Egger pullet.

Depends on the breed of blue egg layer I think. I've only had Prairie Bluebells (Hoovers hatchery "fancy" easter egger with 85% chance of laying blue eggs), but their pea combs matured slightly later than similarly aged ISA browns, and SGEs. The pea combs always looked small and pink to me until chickens were 5 months, then they grew and reddened. If you have a PBB pea comb maturing "early", I would wonder if it was a roo. There's a couple threads on here where that happened and the PBB turned out to be a roo. But I think it depends more on your breed/sex of chicken than just on the type of comb, as to what "early" maturation means.Would this be the same for super blue egg layer?
