Is this hen silver blue?

[Fluffy Lambs]

This is Violet, a mixed breed hen that I have, idk if this is perfect silver blue, and I don't think it's genetically silver blue, but could it be considered silver blue?

I would say so. Do you have full body photos of her? She's lovely.

I've never heard that before! It has a neat ring to it!

Or could it be something like lavender birchen? I'm not sure if she's lavender though.

Lavender wouldn't be that dark and wouldn't have the narrow lacing around the back feathers.

Oh yeah. I just looked it up and she's way darker.

Breeding her to a buff laced polish x white bantam Cochin rooster will make lemon blue too!

It also makes like a partially blue laced red color
