I agree!!That bird is NOT a welsummer. It has the wrong color and it has a crest. She is definitely an olive egger.

Spot on.That bird is NOT a welsummer. It has the wrong color and it has a crest. She is definitely an olive egger.
Just to be clear.. I was told in here that she's a welsummer and not an olive egger. I bought her as a 3 day chick from tractor supply and she was labeled an olive egger. When I posted to ask gender I was told she's not an olive egger bc of the color of her legs.
Olive eggers have yellow/orange legs a lot. Idk who told you that but they must’ve been mistaken.Just to be clear.. I was told in here that she's a welsummer and not an olive egger.

I honestly really didn't know before that (meaning the post that I mentioned) that leg color had anything at all to do with what color their eggs will be.. if that was the case wouldn't silkie (according to the leg color matching egg color) lay black or at least very dark eggs? Maybe I'm just an unfit chicken mommaNobody really knows why leg colors happen the way they do. I have a yellow legged bird that lays blue eggs, a blue legged girl that lays brown eggs, and a few green and yellow legs that lay Khaki colored eggs. Leg color does not *always* tell you what egg color you're going to get.

I hope that nobody believes that.There's a very wide spread belief that leg color tells you what egg color you're going to get. I was told that a bird with blue or green legs would lay those egg colors, too.
There's so much misinformation about egg color and what signs to look for on your bird for that info.
