BS male

This is the same bird with one of my BS males. Looks much different.

BS hen


This is the same hen with a BS pair so I believe her to be a purple BS.

I can't see this one clearly.




Cameo pied hen?



So these "chocolate" looking birds are actually going to be Purple pieds?

The BS male is spalding that's why he looks different, how old he is? If its older than 5 months old it should be hen, second hen is purple right.

The light hen could be cameo or pied pied.

The last two purple BS males i think one is silver pied and the other just pied.

Ok, makes sense. I looked back over my order and hatch and these 2, along with a Purple hen were from a Purple pen. The Spalding BS was supposedly from Silver Pieds but the 5 that hatched were either IB or BS with the BS looking like these instead of Pieds as I was expecting. I lost 2 along the way (IB and BS) but unsure if they were from this hatch or of my own as I made the mistake of hatching some of mine with them figuring the Pieds would be easy to separate once they could be identified but then they looked identical to mine so kept them together until they feathered out. With none of them turned out to be SPBS,( other than one white) I had no idea what I had. They are just 4 mths.


Thanks for your help.

Oh, my confusion seems to be that I did have two hatch from Cameo Pied but there is only one of those in there....I do not know where my other one went to other than they got out once when I wasn't home and my hubby assured me they got them all but I forgot there were two and was somehow thinking that one of the Purple pied was it.
Perplexed about that one as I just now realized it when I took an inventory.
