Breeding / Red (leakage?) on blue cockerel wings

« on: July 31, 2021, 02:00:08 PM »

What can you tell me about red showing up on the wings of a 4-month old blue cockerel...is this a defect that happens, wheaten in the woodpile, etc.? I got some blue chicks earlier this year but quickly realized they aren't the quality I want to work with (fortunately was able to recently get some from a well-known breeder that look much nicer.) I won't be keeping the first batch with no lacing and the red showing up in the cockerels but just curious about it.
