Hey Everyone! In April 2025 I got 6 chicks from TSC. Among them I got three Production Blues. However, none of these look like your traditional PB from, say, Hoover's Hatchery. One, named Ombre, even laid a white egg as her first egg, though after close to two weeks, they are now tan colored.

I noticed she has silver leakage on her hackles instead of red, though, she did have red down on her face as a chick. If you zoom in on her breast feathers, you can see there is some red leakage. Here is Yogurt, another hen with silver leakage and

a small amount of red leakage on her breast as well.

Finally, here is Spidey. as you can see, she has red flecks and a few red feather shafts. It is important to note that all three had dark blue down as chicks, though Ombre's was a little lighter. Let me know what you think! Thanks.
 
Your welcome!
So Ombre is living up to her name 🥰
Wow I actually didn't thing of it like that lol. I once had two Australorps, named Twilight and Eclipse. Twilight came to have lighter brown eyes and Eclipse had eyes so dark they looked black. Very ironic indeed;).
