What the heck are these black chickens?

[Lifewithchicks]

Now that you mention that I Think it could be a BJG, this was mine a while back, the reason I did not say this before was because of the rose comb

What does BJG stand for? This looks just like 3 of them. Only 1 has the red colored comb coming in? Such a mystery!

Blue Jersey Giant, but like I said before wyandottes are known to carry the single comb gene and the blue should fade away on the comb

I take that back, if you look up Blue Wyandotte on google the pictures show that they have blue feet and legs

I haven’t found one with blue feet! Most are blue laced red with yellow feet. I found a picture from my pet chicken of a blue/black/splash Wyandotte that looks similar to mine but of course the feet are hidden. It has a red comb.

Could they have mislabeled BJG as Production Blue? Possibly I have 3 BJG & 1 Blue Wyandotte? (They were selling both production blue and Wyandotte)

They could be production blues. I have 1 girl who doesnt have any red in her but the other 4 all do.

But don’t they have yellow feet?

Most hatchery blue Wyandottes don't. But they should.

You defiantly have two Wyandottes because of the rose combs.

This is my Golden Laced Wyandotte with a single comb

I'm curious how many chickens you think someone could get away with having in the city if there are no roosters making noise among them?

My chickens seem pretty quiet.

And this type of thinking has me curious.

And how did you get that one tame enough to let you pick it up?

Hens are louder than roosters. One of my pullets let's me pick her up and cuddle her. Shes also the loudest one who's screaming constantly. I can hear her in my house and their coop is 100ft away.

They look a lot like my Sapphire Gem.
