Chickabee Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 These 2 lovely ladies have been given to me by a friend. She couldn't remember what breed they are. Any ideas. I think they are hybrids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimnpaula Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 The brown one may be a columbine/skyline (laying blue eggs or possibly pinkish). Don't know about the other, maybe a bluebell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickabee Posted June 26, 2014 Author Share Posted June 26, 2014 One does lay blue eggs, brilliant ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
percy049 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I'd agree with jimnpaula Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickabee Posted June 26, 2014 Author Share Posted June 26, 2014 The grey one has a lace effect to her. Very pretty and quite heavy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
percy049 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 The grey one (is) quite heavy Must be a bluebelle then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickabee Posted June 26, 2014 Author Share Posted June 26, 2014 Great, I like to know what I've got. Thank you everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimnpaula Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 One does lay blue eggs, brilliant ! I had a good feeling about that one as I have a Skyline and (allegedly) a crested cream legbar (she lays white eggs though dodgy parents) and your brown one looks the same shape and colour to share the legbar heritage. I've never had a bluebelle though so I'm not sure about that, but she looks like some bluebelle photos I found in a search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Webmuppet Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 I would say a Columbine and a French Grey (think that's just another name for Bluebelle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggasperated Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 I loved my Bluebelle although she was rather dippy, good layer too, still miss her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
