The brief
French hens (one version) are known for the red tuft on their head, white body and blue legs. Normal Sudoku rules apply. GERMAN WHISPERS- Numbers on the RED AND WHITE lines are at least 5 apart from their neighbors on the line. ENTROPY LINES- Each continuous set of 3 numbers on a blue line contains one low digit (1-3), one medium digit (4-6) and one high digit (7-9). RENBAN- Numbers on the purple line are a set of non-repeating, continuous numbers, in any order. KROPKI PAIRS- Numbers with a white dot between them are consecutive. Numbers with a black dot between them are in a ratio of 2:1. Not all possible dots are given. KILLER- Numbers in cages sum to the number in the top left corner of the cage.
