I'd say candidate #1, If it is ressesive White, It'll throw partridge offspring like that

the chicks all come from LF, and i know that the majority of those in the pic (19/24) are either pure black java (been kept separate for decades, i know for sure) or FCBMs (jeane line, but gotten from a breeder who would likely be careful with his/her money-making ability). there are about 5 who are crosses (javaX various hens i have) and they are actually bigger than the purebreds (hybrid vigor, i guess!)

i do want to emphasize that when i say i am comparing to big KIDS i mean just that, those who, like my chick here, were born normal/average and grew fast and strong. (my kids were like this, esp. one boy).

Oh WOW--that chick is that much larger than normal sized chicks! How 'bout naming it King Kong?

Name him Thor, Mongo or something like that.

He is adorable though.

I had one hatch out all big like that. He was EExBO and the BOs are generally big so that's where I guessed he got it.
He is normal now except has almost no body feathers. Wing feathers, head, neck, a beard even, yes, but his body is mostly still fuzzy at 9+ weeks!!!!!!!!
