I put a Opal Black Shoulder male onto some standard black shoulder hens, my expectation was for some Black shoulder chicks spilt Opal. The spilt chicks are different to the normal Black Shoulder chicks I produce, browner in their feathers. The photos shows a spilt cock next to a normal black shoulder cock of the same age and same batch......any ideas?
