Here's my OEGB. I was told this was a roo -- yes, no? He had a longer tail feather that appears to have been cut by one of my other chickens. And I'd like to determine his color also. Lavender or Self Blue?

Also - here are my other Bantam boys. The one with the single comb is a Partridge Rock, correct? And the rose combs are Partridge Wyandottes, yes?

Self blue and Lavender are the same thing..... just one is a more specific term and one more easily recognized. I would say yes and yes a roo.....

Wyandottes can have single combs. It's a throwback thing and many say they have better fertility??? Nice looking birds

Didn't know that either (about the comb)... so are they PRs or PWs do you think?

And thank you - I think they're quite handsome myself!

Based on the ones with the Rose combs.. I would say Wyandottes..... though, I am not familiar with the breed as I don't actually have any yet myself... but hopefully next year!
