Doris (or Dorris depending on whether it is me or DD talking about her!) is a speckledy - according to the lady that I bought her from. She has English rather than German colouring apparently!

 

She looks as though she would be very similar to that cockerel - what a handsome chap he is!

 

Thanks for the good wishes everyone :)

What breed is Roxy? We have a copper maran (bugatti) who looks just like her, but I'm not certain Bugatti is a copper maran even though she was sold as one.

 

She is a black rock (I think that's what the lady said. She is very similar to the Miss Pepperpot that we originally got from Omlet. I confess that I am not very good with breeds :oops:

 

On the web site of the place where I got them they are referred to as Rhode Rocks but I don't know if this is the same thing!!
