Just wanted to share this interesting breed combo I hatched. This chick is from my splash Brahma hen and my Isabel Orpington rooster. I was surprised to see that it grew out completely dark with full barring but my rooster does have barring as well it's just very light. It's totally a possibility that the hen was bred by my Columbian rock but all of my cr chicks are alot more white with some random barring on the wings and necks so that's why I'm thinking Orpington .
I'll attach photos now , the chicks about 4 weeks old, and newly hatched and the parents
