Lemon Blue Old English Bantam

Old English bantams were developed in England many years ago presumably from the common crossbred bantams of the countryside. Lemon Blue Old English bantam chicks are three colors: black, black with some gray, and splash. Adults have a similar genetic makeup and plumage pattern to Brown Red Old English with the black (B) gene replaced with the incompletely dominant blue (Bl) gene.
