She is a Splash Blue Laced Wyandotte. There are two of those and then the darker ones Are Blue Laced Red Wyandottes. Did I get that right Stephanie?

So...does anyone sell the bantam version of these beauties? orrrr.... is there a bantam cochin of that coloring???

There are a couple of adventurous cochin breeders working on BLRs but the color is a loooooooong way away. Also some working on creel colored, that is a little closer. Another couple are trying to get LF mille fleur, really hard since there are no buff columbian in LF. All of these projects make my Self-blue seem easy and mille fleur seem to be a piece of cake. some are working on barred buff. I've seem some pics of very nice roos but the barring on the hens seems to be very hard to breed.
Purists and alot of cochin show bird breeders are bothered by all the color experimentation.

Hey Coral - I have been to Admiral a couple of times and always enjoyed it - especially when BigOkie is there. If you decide to go this Saturday morning let me know - I have a couple of roo chicks you might want to sell/trade there! One BLRW, one splash Ameraucana, one blue Ameraucana and I think maybe one black - but I'll have to check again. I'm going by comb color at this stage. I haven't really given up yet on the pretty little crook-beak pullet - I was out there tonight again with the emery board but her head is so small I have to put my fingers over her nostrils and bear down to get any rasp going on that top beak, and I'm afraid I'll injure her. Her head and hackles seem to turn more golden-colored every day.
