abwsco Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 This should be a Welsummer x Copper Black Maran as well but my friend thinks she may have given me a pure Wlesummer egg by mistake. Time will tell-lol As you can also see the anti peck spray is not working so they're due to be covered in it again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffin Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I think the confusion over the Copper Black Maran x Welsummer is that a Wellsummer girl would have a salmon coloured breast like that, but to me all the headgear points to boy. The Gold Laced looks quite girly though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted August 26, 2009 Author Share Posted August 26, 2009 Thanks Griffin, I'm thinking the same as you but are waiting until we have crowing! Also,have you any idea what the Gold Laced ones are. My friend has a cockerel that is supposed to be a pure Welsummer. It's one she hatched last year from eggs bought from a reliable business. The eggs I got from her which hatched were from Welsummer and Copper Black chickens all in with this cockerel. She keeps telling me that the pullets don't look like her Welsummers did so I've no idea now-lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
