This is what I understand about chicken coloring so far:

Lavender = Grey
Blue = Grey
Silver = Grey
Grey = Grey

So I was just talking with my aunt and she's looking for some EE chicks, preferably pullets. She doesn't have much room so she's looking for four.

ANY feed store this time of year should have EEs...what they call Ameracaunas.

Sorry to sound sexist, I loves ya. But... I do believe you are a guy. As far as most men are concerned, this means that there are 8 colors in the world, and they are nicely labeled in a box of jumbo crayons if that helps.

For Renaissance Faire, only the Queen is allowed to wear purple. For years, we had newbies arguing that their dress was not purple... it was lilac, fuchsia, violet, deep indigo, etc. Our head of costuming finally git sick of it. Thereafter, on the first day of cast meetings she would make the announcement, "Only the Queen shall wear purple. If you are not sure if your material or gown is allowed, grab your husband or a random heterosexual man off the street and hold it up and ask what color it is. If he says 'purple' it is not allowed!"
This cleared up a lot of confusion! Lol

Never met ya but you do sound like a kick in the head !!!!!!!

I'm getting some FBCM and Ameraucana eggs to put under my broody tonight. Very excited and a bit nervous as we've never done this before.

OMG hopefully you go undercover of darkness & wear a RED head light...no white light.

So I need to move the EE mama and her chicks to a pen as soon as the rain calms down a bit. I need the house she's in for a silkie mama and any chicks that hatch this weekend. Hopefully I get a splash wheaten boy out of it. I love how they look.

It's been off and an all day. I'll probably get them moved Thursday. I'm excited to finally have an ameraucana rooster that will do his job with girls of his own breed. Duke is rotten and prefers EE girls.
