I found someone locally getting out of the chicken business and picked up 1 blue laced red rooster with poor lacing, a blue laced red hen, a black laced red hen and a splash laced hen and 16 juveniles.
I had some good color come out of the juveniles, but had a few odd colors.
Blue laced red hen and rooster (poor lacing):
Nice blue laced red cockeral:
Splash laced red cockeral:
I initally thought this guy was a splash as his body ground color appears splash, but has blue hackles. I'm thinking he might just be a light blue. Any thoughts on this color?
What color is this hen? Appears blue laced, but the neck and breast feathers are different.
And then there is the cockeral:
These were mixed from his hatches. The adult pens had BBS laced red and BBS solid Wyandottes. I'm guessing just wyandotte mixes.
