Eggs and breeding

[Chuckkeeper]

My gold laced polish (?) Is laying eggs and they are probably fertilised (pekin bantam?)

I am so tempted to incubate a clutch. Would this just be a bantam version of a gold laced? So gold laced but smaller?!

Lemme check the genetics calculator. He’s mottled, correct?

They would probably be
1) small size (bantam or slightly larger)
2) have small crests
3) either be blackk mottled with gold leakage or poor lacing quality with some black

So helpful thank you... So pretty enough to be nice pets?!

Yes!! You should totally hatch some. Cross-breds are the best chickens in my opinion. Always a surprise as to what you'll get and they all look different!

Is the polish bearded? (Not relevant to color, just wondering)

So excited for this! I'm not sure the bantam knows what he's doing in the mating departments but fingers crossed! Take it there's no way to know? If they mate today is it tomorrow's egg that is fertile?
