the one time of the year dark colored chickens are worse than light colored birds

Well, mine are holed up in their calf hutches anyways, so they're safe regardless.
But Nardy boy does blend in nicely!

Yaz is coming along so nicely! Look at those rosy feathers!

ZOE!!!!

I let the chickens out. They were not impressed.

Chickens were here!

"Let me in! I want IN!"

NARDY BOY!

Hey, if you COULD go to bed at 4:30 pm, you would!

Cute baby Mohawks and I could go to bed at 4:30, but then would be up all night long. Ha.

No pictures, but I people have been posting photos of blue laced red Wyandottes, and I am DYING for one. They are quickly becoming my favorite breed, the Wyandottes. I already have 4, and I wand more!

I have a blue Wyandotte cockerel. He's pretty chill.

I keep thinking Rory would be fabulous crossed over my Wyandottes. . . He'd be even NICER crossed over a BLUE one!

My understanding is that if I cross this:

With this: (which I already have!)

I get 100% blue and gold/red birds.
And if I crossed Rory with this:

I'd get . . . Predominately splash, with a few blue and gold/red, right?
But if I crossed him over this:

I'd get 100% splash with the gold and red highlights, yes?
And if I cross him over one of these lovely ladies (Jackie and Bill pictured, but I also have Martha) I get 100% blue, with or without red/gold, but probably gorgeous!

I really want to cross Rory over the Wyandottes!!!
