Looks like one of each! Splash, blue, black - the black may actually be a very dark blue - one of my breeder hens is very dark blue, and she's got gorgeous lacing - here's hoping that very dark one is dark blue (they look black as chicks). CUTSEY chickies!

Please help me...My birds are now about 13 weeks old and here is the issue: I ordered (from Ideal) 2 Jersey black Giants along with some other birds. They looked like this when I got them:

well at least these are the only birds that are a mystery as of now. The birds are now completely white. They are currently no bigger than the other breeds I got. They have greyish greenish legs and dark eyes. Input? Are these white giants?

Thats great news! They arent black but Im so enamored with the huge hens I had to have some. Maybe in my next flock that Ill try to merge in a year or two when production begins to slow with this group Ill get a few more.
