Point of reference, there is already a thread for Self-Blue Cochins going.

Sometime in the future we'll hold a qualifying meet, and the intent, or at least my intent, is to have them admitted as Self-Blue vs. Lavender. Self-Blue is already a recognized variety in several breeds, and I don't see a need to create another variety name as long as the current description is appropriate. I know this a bone of contention with some of the other breeds/breeders working on Self-Blue (Lavs) in their respective breeds.
