I know this is a mutt... but what in the world?

and I think this Dominique mutt is the ugliest chicken I have ever seen. All were hatched on Thanksgiving day!

everyone has a different opinion -- personally I really like the patchwork / calico feathering on this chook; I think she is lovely (am assuming this is a pullet)

Oh, I think the small gold/brown one is a cutie....just don't have a clue what it is! It is the black and white one in the background that is so ugly. My neighbor laughed so hard when he saw poor black and white roo!

 

[Kaneke]

black and white one reminds me of the way white patching shows up in cats === has been described as what would happen if the cat jumped into a puddle (or pail) of milk === on feet, chest, and splashed up partly on the back and/or face

I dunno, I am in love with EEs -- so I appreciate the "different" chickens -- and to my eyes, that roo is quite good looking; would be interesting to see what his offspring might look like

 

[Carrie Lynn]

I like her!

Looks like to me you have a rare Spangled Bangled Copper Red Black egg laying chicken fer shure.

And you also have an outstanding specimen of a Dalmation Sport Martinique. I am soooooo jealous!!

When it all boils down too it... we are all mutts

Ditto!

And Baymule, kudos for the spot-on breed identification!

Y'all are too funny! Baymule, I am calling my neighbor o tell him about that Martinique- he will be so jealous!

Baymule-LOVE your breed descriptions especially after the PERPETUAL EE/mutt/mongrel debate and the hatchery debate which runs amok everywhere. As refreshing as a fountain coke!
