Hello!
I'm completely new to chickens and just got 3 little ladies on saturday.
Now I'm curious to what colours they are in chicken terms! Also, as they are 14 weeks now, I'm curious whether they will stay relatively like this or if the colours tend to change (like, will Kali typically get more or less white colour as she grows?)
From the left two cochin bantams Aart and Kali, on the right is brahma bantam Greta:
Closer look on each,
Here is Aart in front
Greta, the brahma bantam
And Kali again
So obviously I would be able to say I have one black, one brown and one gray/blue, but I was wondering if someone knows more specific, and if the patterns have any names (is it called anything special when there is a white necklace on the black?).
I searched a bit in Google, and figured out that Aart could be "lemon blue", is that true?
Im curious to learn more about my chickens. Thanks for your help!
