Do any chickens have blue or lavender colored earlobes? His earlobes are almost a pastel blue lavender iridescent color.

Silkies are the only breed I know of. He isn't part silkie, though. But earlobe color isn't always necessarily "correct" in every bird.


But one of my EE's has BRIGHT, iridescent blue earlobes. My Spitzhauben girl also has blue in the middle of her white earlobes, but not as "neon" blue as the EE. She's not supposed to have blue earlobes

No, sorry he is not a Marans, but he sure is a pretty fella!

Well thanks for your help everyone! He isn't a good guy to father my orp babies so he's available. He is free and is on the birds over 8 weeks old buy sell trade. I hope someone wants him, I don't want to put him on craigslist

White earlobes will have blue/lavender on them as well. He is going to be a stunning roo when he gets fully feathered. I would agree with happytxchick. My first thought was splash Andalusian until I saw the red coming in over the shoulders. So I would think Andalusian cross.
