[Isadora]

She's a blue gold duckwing.

I really, really like her color.
The other one
all I see is a dalmatian in chicken form

Oh my god! 'B' looks so close to a Phoenix I hatched out! What was her background?

I don't want to influence the vote and I shouldn't since I actually love them both. The blue duckwing is a bit rough right now but that pattern is beautiful. I've worked towards it for a few years.
The dalmatian was more of a fluke that I feel for.
She's mottled and barred. I was breeding a barred male and crossed him with a mottled expecting birds that only carried mottling. I wasn't aware he already carried it so I ended up hatching two pairs that were that pattern. I'd never seen that pattern on any breed so it was new to me.
I'm doing it in blue also now.

I started by crossing a solid blue with silver duckwing. Then I kept crossing back to silver duckwing until I got blue silver duckwing. Then I crossed blue silver duckwing hens with a gold duckwing male.
The patterns turned out easy to do its getting rid of the white skin I brought in with the original blue bird that has been the pita.

Huh, okay. That makes sense.

I love A too, but now I have a personal connection to B.

What a difficult fight club. I will need a few days to decide. And maybe I'll need to plan a trip to leghorn Graceland to harass chickens out of you. We will need to make it a group trip to wear down Mooney's willpower.

Did you go on a date?

 

[JacinLarkwell]

Did you go on a date?

No . It just looks too similar to my girl to vote against
