In the Cubalayas it happens periodically when breeding the blacks (sports of the wheaten) to the whites (sports of the wheaten). The White is recessive to the black but 'bleeds through' or 'leaks' whichever technical term you like. lol.

Well doc, were only going to bring one Cuba male . The other is molting and all the young birds are gimpy looking or featherpicked. So we will bring maybe, One BB Red Cock,1 Blue Red pullet and 2 BB Red pullets. The Pyle has too much black specks and gowing feathers, so he will stay home.

I hear you Zach. I've got one real nice stag but he's moulting in the hackle. The one I'll probably bring is not nearly as tall, weight is good, but he looks short compared to the other fellow.

That white cockerel in particular is FANTASTIC!!

I wish anybody who thinks plain white birds are unattractive could see a good male white Cubalaya-hard to beat for sheer beauty!!

That silver pullet is really lovely as well.

By the way guys, I saw a true partridge real BB Red stippled type pullet this weekend-not a wheaten, and no part wheaten either. All Cubalaya, though. A lovely bird, wish I gotten a pic.
