Black To White Experiment

[MysteryChicken]

Her current look.

A few pictures of her new growth. She's just about done with her molt.

She's still laying, so once I get the brooder set up, I'll prepare my new incubator. Will have to get some bottled water to use first though.

Hopefully she gives me a Male, to see how it effects them.

Thinking of hatching maybe, 4-5 eggs, maybe 6. Trying not to overdo it with chicks this year, but if I do, we can eat the extras that don't change color, or don't show specific traits while getting in juvenile plumage. Like white in the wing feathers that stay with each molt.

Close ups/Updated pictures of the original Chameleon hen.
She's a Black, White, Brown, & now has a half white, half orange feather.

She was also subjected to my increased nutrition part of the experiment. Just encouraged more change, rather then prevented it. She's still molting alittle bit in her neck, thought she was done.

@NatJ, @pipdzipdnreadytogo, posted update on the original hen, if you wanna see her.

They're like twins with the top of their heads. Talking about the spots/speckles.

I'll update if there's anymore changes, or when I get ready to start hatching.
