Well my sister and I incubated 23 eggs during the cold snap that hit Texas around Christmas and we had 18 chicks hatch out it. My go to chicken breeder had her incubator open as she wasn’t hatching anything at the moment and hatched them out for us. They’re Cochin bantams chicks. The fathers are Calico roosters that are smooth and frizzled. The moms are black mottled, blue frizzled and chocolate. We got a good amount of mottled but we also go blue and chocolate ones that look to be going mottled but the fathers are calicos? I’m very new at chicken color genetics so does the calico gene contain something similar to the mottled? We also go two calico colored ones who seem to have some weird patterns. I’ll be uploading photos of them tomorrow but I’ll attach a few photos that I took when they were a week old.
