For the one everyone is calling Sapphire Gem, I was thinking Andalusian. What's the difference between the breeds that's making everyone say SG? (Not saying it's not. Just asking.) This is the first I've heard of Sapphire Gems. Had to google it. LOL

I'm guessing Sapphire Gem because it seems to be commonly available at the present time, just like Black Sexlinks and Red Sexlinks. Blue Andalusians certainly can show up in a chick bin at a store, but not as often as Sapphire Gems seem to. When a given chicken could be any of several breeds, I tend to guess the most common of them :D

By the time they grow up, Andalusians should have white earlobes and lay white eggs. Sapphire Gems will probably have red earlobes, certainly lay brown eggs, and probably will have meatier bodies than Andalusians.
