Mcrooke, Perhaps it's the photo or lighting but I am having difficulty seeing the BLUE in this Ko Shamo? Here are few photos of Blue Wheatens for comparison. These are bred by Caldwell, from Ko acquired from my friend Walt Leonard.
I see what you are saying. I was just trying to define the blue color a bit. I have raised blue birds for over 25 years. a lot of people don't understand the color genetics of the color blue. It can range from almost a dark grey black to a sky blue to splash depending on the gene pattern in the bird. When you cross a blue bird with one that is not blue, the blue gene is on the most part dominant and the birds produced from it will carry the blue gene. I have done a lot of reading on color geneticsmc,
I see the blue, but when we say something like 'dark blue grey' what we would generally mean is that he is a silver duckwing blue or a golden duckwing blue; as the word 'grey' in the game world refers to silver or golden duckwing.
At one time I was going to play Dr. Frankenstein and Cross some of my Melanistic pheasants I had with some of my chickens by artificial insemination to see what I would create. While I was away in Texas visiting my daughter it came a bad storm and a tree fell on my pen and crushed it and my pheasants escaped before I could complete my experiment. You might create a Blue Jay chicken by crossing it with a pheasantI'm still waiting for someone to come up with a bird that is 'Blue Jay' blue!
