@NatJ. Believe it or not, she does have barring.

I also love the effect this mutation has on red.

Should I call this Phantom Cuckoo, or The Chameleon Gene?

Mother of the Chameleon Hen.

@nicalandia, suspects mottling based on the mother's coloration, which I will test for the following spring, not next spring.
Next spring I'm breeding Dino, & Smarty Pants(Mother of the Chameleon hen), together again, will probably collect 4 eggs from them, & see what hatches.

Sassy Pants/Fat Lady(The Chameleon), will be bred back to her father, & a solid rooster. I'll be testing to see if it's dominant, or recessive. 4 eggs from her too.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like her! Definitely a lot different than my hen with a few white feathers.

Exactly. She's a freak.

Exactly. She's a freak.

It still seems to be evolving. Odd.
