@marchick

this pullets has a correct body type and mass .
deep and wide chest great
flat long back great
gorgeous thin pointed tail .
nice feet well colored and feathered .
love her head .robust ,will produce nice cockerels .
nice comb .good point and lobe .a little twisted at the front but that is alright .
nice small size wattles /god color and texture ,free from any folding or split.
great plumage free from any fluff , great lacing
hackle need copper

this one because of her blue plumage is a little darker can be mated to a Blue copper rooster/cockerel

Notice the Orange tag in the picture above is the same girl in the other post. She is darker! Funny how camera and lighting change things. Like the Copper on hackles. They both have better copper than shows in pictures. I think I need to use a better camera than my phone.
