I'm not sure if I'll get enough eyeballs here, and I'm sure I could just wait and see how they come out, but it's driving me crazy.
My black serama hen and my brown red rooster had 8 chicks for me, of them one has a lot of white on her, and several others have a fair amount on their wingtips and heads. (all with the most white are pullets I believe) No clue what's in their backgrounds but I own their adult kids, the 4 hens are all black, the one rooster is brown red like this guy. So, both these parents must be carrying mottle, right? I'm assuming the one with so much white won't turn black, is going to be some pretty gal, what about the others? I'm insanely excited about them because while I love black birds, I love blue and splash and millefleur and mottled, more.
How darling is this old guy? He broods those chicks, usually on the floor while his wife is on a perch.
Thanks in advance for any and all answers. Bonus points for answers I like (like "yes, there will be more than one mottled" type of thing).
