Rhode Island blues (aka production blues) are Rhode Island reds crossed with blue/splash australorps.I agree. Pretty sure it's a name for a Blue Sex Link, so fair to say it's not that.

If she has gold feathers, then she’s probably a Rhode Island blue that didn’t get the blue gene.Strange this is her beak is black, her comb is black and her face is black? a few of the feathers on her chest look more like a gold laced Wyandotte, but she has a beautiful hue of blue on her back feathers?
What color of her foot bottoms would determine her breed?
Exactly so!White would likely mean an Australorp, yellow a Jersey Giant. (There are more black breeds, but these are the most common that match her body type and dark eyes)
A jersey giant?Exactly so!
They're relatively common from hatcheries, but they don't normally grow as large as the SOP (standard of perfection) for the breed. They're also completely black in the feathers with dark legs and yellow foot bottoms.A jersey giant?that would be pretty cool.
Looks like Maude is going to get an inspection tonight!!!!They're relatively common from hatcheries, but they don't normally grow as large as the SOP (standard of perfection) for the breed. They're also completely black in the feathers with dark legs and yellow foot bottoms.
