Has anyone had this and is it normal

[Flockking]

These guys are 2 out of 5 siblings from a half frizzle dad, which means he's frizzle didn't curl all the way to 100%
But at first these guys looked half frizzled like their dad but now with them developing more feathers they're starting to look normal but their tail and wing feathers remain frizzle
Is this normal or is it something they'd out grow

I don't think the frizzle gene works that way. But I'm not an expert. @JacinLarkwell @NatJ . Do you have any photos of the dad? These guys look like scraggly cockerels to me

Frizzling is a dominant trait. If they have it, it shows. They can't be 'half frizzled'. A homozygous frizzle is a frazzle, which is something to avoid.

So what can you say is the reason for the frizzle tail and wing feathers

The dad's not mine but let me ask my buddy to send some pics

I don't see a single frizzle feather on that bird. Just scraggly-ness

 

[JacinLarkwell]

I just see ragged feathers. They're not curled. Frizzles are very obvious from the first couple weeks

The tail and wings are
I had to pluck the tail ones of to see how they come back and they are coming in curl
It's late but let me step out to get some photos

That last sentence sounds like it’s straight out of a Dr. Suess book

Sorry for the delay
Here are some photos of ones incoming tail feathers
Like I said I took them off to see how they'd come back and still came back frizzle looking
