badgerbluebadger Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Is a Mendlesham Blue a hybrid? If so what pure breed mix are they? I know that Sam my Miss Pepperpot is the result of a Rhode Island Red crossed with a Maran and a Plymouth Rock, but have no idea about my Dipper Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moochoo Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Hi, yes they are a hybrid. It's just another name for a Bluebelle. I understand they're a Maran, Rhode Island Red cross. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 HI I got a mendlesham Blue (aka bluebell) apparently cant remember which place it is they originated from but if it doesnt come from that breeder??Place??the person selling it cant call it a Bluebell.... I got a mendlesham Blue this week and she looks like bluebell to me ..wonder if an expert could tell the difference..I am certainly a novice completely but probably someone will correct me..it looks the same to me! I am going to post some photos this weekend of my chickens etc so look out for them..the Bluebell is so friendly that i have day 4 and she ate out of my hand to day and has been very inquisitive and keeps lookout whilst the other dopey pair doze indie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
