I agree!

When you get some more pics, post them here. I almost feel like the guy you bought them from either fibbed a bit or just didn't know.... But they almost look like California Grays.

Nah, those have red earlobes.

Nah, those have red earlobes.

Do they? They lay white eggs.

Ah. It appears they can have either. Interesting.

Do they? They lay white eggs.

I think that’s what’s special about them, along with Hollands.

I've actually seen them with both. That certainly is special.

Now back to the matter at hand....

Everyone post pics of your Cuckoo LHs when you get better pics.

Then we can ask Moony if he has eggs for sale yet.

CGs are supposed to have white lobes and lay white eggs.
As far as I know theyve never been an APA breed so even though they have/had a standard Idk how many strictly bred to it.
The red comes from the BRs used in making them and should be breed away from but ive seen some with more red on white lobes then what would get a LH booted.
Never seen any true CGs with pure red lobes.
