This bird is only 7 weeks old from p&ps. I think it's a he. Her lavs have more beard and muffs than any of the blacks. I hope he's not too much of a queen. If I keep him, he'll need to do his roosterly duty! I have more lavs from Harry Shaffer so excess lav roos is likely.
I'm not sure. If I had to guess, I would think it is because wyandottes occasionally get crossed in to improve lacing. Mr. Roebuck is crossing in wyandotte to improve lacing and solid colored birds to improve type, but that really screws up your lacing. He has been very helpful getting me started. It also seems that the GLCs have much poorer foot feathering probably as a result of this.
