NeedHelp to tell the difference between my Reg IB's & my Bronze/ BS !

[chickenzoo]

Any one have any clues to help me out. They are out in the pen together and I though I banded all my IB chicks from this season... Wrong ! Now someone wants my last pair and I can't figure out the difference in the last 2. I only could tell the others because of the white flights, and one hen has a few white feathers on her back. The other hen did have one whitish spot... but now it's gone. One hens chest is lighter than the other..... which might that be?

learned my lesson.....

Check the neck feather colors, bronze with have a darker neck. You are talking about a split bs right

Yep, I think..... their Dad was a bronze and mom was a BS hen. I'll see if I can tell........ dang me for not banding.......

Well if the mother was just a blue BS, then the chicks will look blue ,slit to bronze,and BS. Will not be able to tell from other blues.
