Look at the tail feathers on this roo..

[GaDawg]

he is an EE, would you say he has a blue gene in him?
just curious

 

[hippichick]

Not sure, but boy, he surely is pretty!

Yea those are beautiful birds!

 

[GaDawg]

Thank you, I like him too. Just would like to know if you could tell what breeds he is mixed with? I'm not that familiar with diff. breeds yet.

 

[hinkjc]

It looks like he has a pea comb. If so, the odds are pretty good he carries the blue egg gene. They are both beautiful!

I can't wait to see what kind of chicks he will produce with my Buffs. If they ever go broody....lol

can anyone make a guess?

 

[Mahonri]

Those birds are breathtaking. Just beautiful!

 

[Birch Run Farm]

Yes, very nice birds! What was your source?

 

[fancyfowl4ever]

He looks from the colouring like my Splash Blue Laced Red Wyandotte Rooster.
Splashes have 2 blue genes making the bird look almost white with flecks of blue and black.

Maybe he has some Blue laced red wyandotte in him some 2 or 3 generations ago.

Thank you fancyfowl, I googled Splash Blue Laced Red Wyandotte Rooster and he does look very close to what I found. i hope he produces pretty chicks sometime in the future.


Birch Run Farm, I got him from a local Farm and Garden store. I think they may get their chicks from Cackle Hatchery.
