My blue orps...DUW

[Katy]

Thanks Jody...I've got one splash but the others are varying shades of blue. Now all I need is a lavender orp.....

You have some gorgeous looking orps there Katy. At first glance I almost thought I was looking at a pic of some of mine. You have really done an outstanding jobe with them.

Thanks Yogiman, but I don't feel like I can take credit for them....that goes to the various people I got the eggs from. I'm enjoying seeing them develop. Can't wait till I'm getting eggs from them.

Katy I am working on those lavs but long way to go still.

Yogiman hopefully you should have some of those pretty blue chicks soon. Don't you forget about me for those White Orps.

Jody looking forward to your Buff eggs arriving.

This may be a dumb question, but how does the lavender color happen? Genetics stuff always confuses the heck out of me.

self blue and black and a lot of other factors that I don't quite understand either. I have the self blue and blacks so I will start seeing what happens.

By the way, my Wyandottes are BLRW from Ray.
