I think I made a frankencolor! Dark comb, red wattles, pigmented patches on neck, dark around eye skin. Is this critter recessive for the mottling gene? An alien species?It’s a….that looks gross while grooming itself. Only six weeks old.

I have no idea and it's hard for me to say, "cute chicks" because I think those have a face only a mother can love. I'd go with mottled on the one though, and the other actually does look cute...maybe will be a splash or partridge? Here's my weirdo chick. Bleeding out red on its head and growing green feathers. Now that's Frankenstein lol
