“I echo the crowd that this breed of bird is friendly and curious which is a fun combination! Honey will come greet me hoping I have kitchen scraps. She also likes to get onto my shoulder. She is not aggressive at all but she is also not shy. I would label her as "confident" and one of my favorite birds.”
“I have a cuckoo bluebar and she is the sweetest chicken, she loves being held, and whenever i sit down to read in the garden (where my chicken coop is) she comes up to me and sits on my lap or on the arm of the chair right next to me. She's also very nice to all of the other chickens and shes actually the oldest of them all since she's in a coop with just 2 month old chicks and she's about 4 months old. It's true that Cuckoo Bluebars mature pretty fast, but still shes only 4 months old so I don't know what color the egg is going to be exactly yet.”
“No complaints m, she is pretty, inquisitive and fun. The only ‚Äúproblem‚Äù would be her eggs are definitively green, not blue. Closer to an F1 olive egger egg.
Still a pretty egg, but if you want a blue egg for certain, try a guaranteed breed.”
“She's a great bird, beautiful color, Massive comb...so big it drapes over and blocks one of her eyes. Likes to be near people but skiddish when trying to pick up. Does NOT lay blue eggs (I see there is now a disclaimer which was not there upon my purchase). Consistent layer, hardly ever skips a day. If your wanting the blue hue good luck.”
“Jane is far prettier than the chicken in the ad would suggest. No eggs yet (hence 4/5 stars, but I‚Äôm expecting her to lay any day now), and not as bold as my Buckeye or my Speckled Sussex, but still a lovely member of the flock.”
“Blue is the sweetest most inquisitive chicken! I expected her to be a little flighty which I suppose she is, but not in the way I imagined. So on that note, she is a very capable chicken when it comes to getting around. Sometimes I find her sitting on the garage roof, just looking around. Every once in a while she goes over the fence just to show off. She is super friendly and accessible though, and always pops right back when I call her, and chances are if you have a seat in the backyard when the chickens are out she will be on your shoulder or lap. She worked her way up to the top of the pecking order in no time, but isn't a bully or anything, she just made her way up the roosts and was very persistent about not being pushed out, so the big girls finally said ok, whatever. She is about 5.5 months old and just started laying beautiful big eggs (without the drama that sometimes accompanies new egg layers). I was a little torn on the stars - the only complaint I have is that the eggs have more of a green tint and I really wanted blue. Maybe they will become more blue with age, my legbar's did, but I went with 5 stars because she is just an all around great chicken and I'd buy her again in a heartbeat.”
“The eggs are almost identical to my 2 Easter Egger's eggs - more greenish in color. While the eggs are not the blue I had hoped for, this is a gorgeous bird! She is talkative and bold. She has easily positioned herself near the top of the pecking order - she's not mean, but quite protective of her coop mates. She is also quite the flier, so if you are concerned about keeping birds in their yard, this might not be the breed for you.”
