Yes, she is a hen and she is gorgeous. However, I call her a lilac breast but the breeder I got her from called her a purple breast. Am color blind or am I missing something?

She looks purple breast to me :) Lilac hens are very pale, almost negligible amount of color. A good way to think about it is generally lilac breasted males look like a purple breasted hen.

This is a lilac breast hen:

Thank you for explaining that to me! =D> =D> =D> I guess I just assumed that if the breast wasn't as dark as my RH male's (like my avatar pic) then it was consider lilac. You know what they say about assuming [-X [-X [-X

If he doesn't start using it more than....YES!! Most definitely. I will use all the money from selling off his office furniture to stock with birds and flights!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Oh....how fun that will be.

I am going to keep after him about it. He really hasn't put up too much of a fight....so this could really happen. He's at work more than he is home so why have a home office.
