It's the same type of line I've seen when the boys get to breeding age. (although mine hasn't been as pronounced) I've read about it in other breeds, and it was explained as hormonal. (can't remember where I read it though)

I've always thought that was a sign of fertility/maturity in roos. My Barnevelder roos all get that on their legs when they are good to go.

Wow, there is a color difference! I can't wait to see the differences in the birds from what we have here. Good luck with your hatch!

Some pics of my Pink Wellies... 6/10 hatched so far. I'm on day 22 but I hope more will follow. Anyone care to sex these for me? From what I've read it looks like quite a few gals???????????

It just looks like mine when they start maturing. Like the extra hormones make their legs get red. I can't tell you if it is "white leg gene leakage" or anything like that.
