Yohanna explaines that any color patterns go, her patterning is marbled,(lacing,marbled,mottled,stippled,pied,zig-zag,or any combinations of these) Thats what makes them unique-plus you can not breed for certain color but the mottled pattern. Yohanna also states that you can somewhat determine your hen offspring by mother hen chest color,but only to the females or pullets chest feathers(who knows)I have hatched over 1000 chickens but,3 where my favorites one black with yellow around the eyes,one was tan with black marbing, both with huge top nots they looked road runners!The other was blue like a aldulsian chicken(bad spelling)

Yes I did and answer sent! I was busy breaking up a fight in the brooder!
Here are the combatants, baby Brahma on the right, baby Icelandic on the left. Had the fight been allowed to continue, I would have put my money on the Icelandic!

I think you might be on to something. Had I posted that the hen crowed and never laid an egg? I think I posted it in a thread somewhere. Of course, we will never know now.
I will read more when my family isn't hollering to be fed....
