What is \"true slate\"? That is a good question.
Are buffs true slate if they are not slate at hatching, but darken later? This is a recognized variety, but the slate looks different to me.
Are slate spots on a barred or mottled bird true slate (with color inhibitors)?
Are black legs truly slate (slate with black extenders causing the legs to be black)?
Is the chocolate dilution of black that causes the slate leg to have a chocolate cast, still slate?
What about lavender that dilutes the slate to light slate?
