Y'all asked for an update on our reversed color SLW gal. Here she is feathering out at 6 weeks.
A close up of her lacing shows black in the center and the silver is on the edges.
Here is her sister.... You can still tell quite a difference.
She ordered from Hoover hatchery in Iowa.
Think it could really be a mutt? I thought hatcheries were good about keeping them separate. I never even thought about her feathering out different from the down. Looking forward to seeing what happens though!
This came out of a ladies hatchery chicks. It was the only one that looked like this out of a set of 25 silver laced wyandottes. Can reverse coloring happen or is it a different breed?
