Olive Eggers Lineage

[BonnieBlue]

My latest group of girlies is 4.5 weeks old now. Two of them are Olive Eggers from Ideal. As you can see in the pic, the two OE's have crests. (The other with that coloring but no crest is the Welbar. The three reds are New Hampshires.)

As itty bittes, they were brown chipmunk. As they are feathering, they have black/gray feathers and a crest. (My previous OE from ideal is my avi. Brown with gold and no crest.)

Just out of curiousity, I am trying to figure out what breed is in the lineage for these two to give them a crest. Any thoughts?

I'd guess they are Welsummer x Crested Cream Legbar crosses.

Thanks!

It will be interesting to see their eggs.
