My polish crosses are hatching!!! Got 2 pips on day 20 right now. My question is, do they automatically get their poofy heads, or is it more 50/50 that they'll get them depending on whether they take after their mom or their dad? mom's a white crested black polish and dad's a brahmaXGLW.
 
Depends on the quality of the Polish parent. Some have pretty small or poor crests which may or may not pass on, some have decent to great crests and/or vaulted skulls that aid in the chances. In most cases you should get small crests, practically tufts of feathering coming out the top, but I have indeed gotten some normal looking offspring from lesser crested Polish.
 
i don't know if she's considered a decent crest or not...? I just know she can barely see sometime, lol! this is her.
