Has anyone seen this color come from White Leghorn hen and RIR rooster? A first for me

I get white birds with black spots when my Blue Andalusian/Jersey black Giant breeds our white leghorn. One of the roosters from them is gorgeous but... still a rooster . His future includes a long hot soak with onions, potatoes and carrots.

Leghorns are dominant white. Crossed with RIR and many other breeds, will give you a white bird with black flecks.

This is my first like this. The other came out completely white. This one almost looks like a Delaware lol

Dominant white is a strong gene. Crosses with a dominant white parent can come out all white or like this one white with the colored flecks. I have two birds myself with this pattern.
