Does anyone have a solid dun or khaki hen of any breed (bantam) for sale?

I have some that are done.

Thanks! My plan was to find Chocolate white eggers so that I can start from a blank slate to get project Chocolate Ameraucanas (hence why I was hoping for some white egg layers). Does anyone know if someone is working on Choc Leghorns? I am willing to give that a shot to get what I want, although I have been working through the genetics and... do you think that if a male in the third generation (they will have egg color of either brown/brown, brown/white and white/white) would show characteristics of a white egg layer? Is that trait strongly linked to distinguishing characteristics (e. white ear lobes)?

smoothmule - Do you know of anyone who has Dun and Black Sumatras?
chickened - That was the only one that I could find, but only white crested chocolate. I don't want to take on another characteristic that I need to breed out if I can help it! (crest)

Pips & Peeps is already working on chocolate ameraucanas (choc, not dun); you might speak with her.

A couple of hens in my "sunbleached" Dun Araucana project. They are with one of my Araucana roosters now, getting fertile eggs :

Nice hens! I have some just like them . They really do look like a tailed smooth faced araucana when you think about it

Are these Sumatra hens? Are they Dun or Khaki?

They are sunbleached right now, they are Dun Sumatra's. Large fowl size. I'm looking for a bantam hen now too.

Is there anyone with a Chocolate colored standard-sized bird that lays white eggs?

I have chocolate hens that are large fowl and lay blue eggs but not white,

I have a small dun sumatra hen, she looks like the size of a bantam x LF that I got at a swap. She looks good but if you plan to use her to breed more dun birds, she obviously has some red in her because lots of her sons (when mated to a black) have red hackle/saddle.

Thanks, I'll pass on her but only because of the red so I don't start off having to breed it out. If she has red showing, she may be wheaten based and that is a pain to make black. I appreciate the thought

Hi everone! Dumb newbie q: Here is an OE I got in a mixed flock. I feel like she is too dark to be blue; can she be classified as platinum? There is a slight brown undertone to the grey...what can I breed her with to 'play up' the brown?
