I have a mixed flock, but this one’s unique?

I have no explanation for that coloring!

That's the Elusive Piebald we have been searching all along...! It's there...

I must admit that I am at a loss here. I am not seeing why are people finding my post amusing.

Can you take some more pictures of her? She appears to be an Easter egger or Easter egger mix, but I have no explanation for that coloring! A typical splash or dominant white chicken wouldn’t have that much black isolated in the neck feathers.
@Amer

I wouldn’t have the slightest clue.
Maybe an embryo fusion or a new mutation?

How did you come to this conclusion?

I think we are used to you using your revelation as a teaching moment. Until now you have denied piebald to be a thing in chickens. None of us have heard you say this before, so we’re a little lost and genuinely curious about what convinced you?

I am inclined to think it's Piebald because of the head. It could also be a Chimera but those are 99% of the time split in the middle..

While True Piedbald has not been documented in chickens. It does not mean it could not just pop up as an spontaneous mutation.

I thought you were trying to be funny.
I had no idea you were being serious.
Dang it Nic I was so proud of you finding your sense of humor.

Lack of Humor is one of the least of issues I have. I can't hold a conversation with my 10 year old for longer than 5 minutes. I have nothing in common with my Wife. I have no friends. Every day I wake up to a strange world. I am barely functional in society. Enough to hold a job.

Very interesting.
I guess we’ll just have to wait and see how her offspring turn out!
