Edit: Erm. Posted this in the wrong folder. Can anyone move it to the right place? Thanks. /Edit.
My digital camera is finally working again so I've been making up for lost time and taking a ton of pictures. I'd like to know what colors the following three roosters are.
The first one is my "black" Maran rooster. He has a lot of gold in his hackles. Is he a poorly marked black copper? A poorly marked black? Something else entirely?
The second one is of an Ameracauna hen. I think it's a blue laced (gold). I'm tempted to breed her to my Silver Laced Wyandotte rooster to see what she throws. I'd like more blue laced offspring, but any funky color with nice lacing works for me.
The final batch of pictures is a calico-something Ameraucana. We've had him for about a year now and he throws a _lot_ of blue chicks. The one rooster we kept looks identical to him, but started off a mottled brown-grey little thing that I kept promising I'd butcher. Now that his adult feathers have come in he looks like a mirror image of his father.
