Creating Experimental Black Crele Chickens (Different Genetics, new variety)

[MysteryChicken]

Barely thougn. Cant say for sure if itll stay or brighten, or dissappear as an adult.

It's on the chick down, so the pattern will go away. I'm just waiting now to see what colors it's going to be when grown up.

I cant wait to see what the golden one looks like full grown XD

Here you can see very faint, but faint light grey chipmunk stripes.View attachment 1758922

I have two chicks with that pattern-

They're gold laced sebrights. Even if a chick has a pattern that looks slightly similar to wildtype, that doesn't mean it will be.

They're bantams too, so they're most likely going to have the chipmunk, or residual chipmunk striping. What I mean by residual, is recessive.

I doubt they have any sort of "recessive" wildtype. Sebrights don't come in wildtype at all, so there's no way it could be in their genes.

There isn't any such thing as a recessive Wild type.
Wild type is wild type. Its dominate to some patterns on the e locus and recessive to others.
Also don't mean anything that your chicks are bantams. Color/pattern genetics are the same whether it's on large fowl or bantams.

What I meant you see it more on bantams then largefowl. My chick is a largefowl, not a bantam, I didn't say my chick was a bantam.

These chickens were used to make Orpingtons: Minorcas, Langshans, & Plymouth Rocks. Interesting, isn't it?

I may know where the feathering on my chick's leg came from now.

From the Langshan side of Orpington genetics.
