@marchick

this Blue cockerel has a perfect body type similar to your Blue copper cockerel . correct in all the aspect .I m not happy about his shoulder . give him more time if you thin your strain are slow colouring type . I do like him a lot ,not as much as the original rooster .

keep the original and the Blue one for a time been . you don t need more .\one for body type a carriage the other for body pattern and purity of silver .
