Admhotel:
I have the first generation of blue silvers hatching now but I am a little confused. First to say, I only have the one blue hen in with a silver male so I know which eggs are hers and there is no fence jumping. I thought that the first generation would all be either blue or black. Some of the chicks that are hatching are coming out with the silver pattern. Not sure if they carry blue also or not but is this correct or am I getting lucky geneticly.
Mike Gilbert:
Your blue hen is not pure for E or E^R, but split for wild type (e+). Lucky choice on that hen, it saved you a raising an extra generation in your project. Congrats!
Admhotel:
So that is good for my Blue Silver project but not for my BBS lines :( Who should I contact to try to get some nice BBS eggs?
FLFAmeraucanas:
Some new pics of some of my blue silvers. Maybe some day it will be warmer then 20 degrees and windy when I take pictures of them.
This is my rooster, a hen, and a pullet.
I\'m really loving this color!
Mike Gilbert:
Nice, tight comb on that rooster. How are they doing for temperament? Flighty or calm?
