I have one BCM and a solid black and a splash. They all look ready to lay with bright red combs/wattles, so I will be watching closely to see who it is!

they all are identical the only way i can tell them apart is their combs and the shape of their heads. otherwise i cant tell from far off....

I cant tell my three similar Hens apart. the lighting makes them all look different but really they are all identical

ahhh i get ya...im still voting blues... do they all have some sort of lacing on the edge of their feathers? a couple of the photos really showed that. i have a girl that you have to look at twice to make sure she's not black, but is indeed a nice dark charcoal blue

all of them have great lacing...which is why i thought they were blues... cause there is obviously some dilute color on the feathers. But it is pretty i think!
