A mixed breed chicken.

Very Funny!!

But seriously, would they be white, black or even grey? A mixture of black and white ? Splash?

Somewhere there is a chicken color calculator that tells u what you would get when crossing colors.

I think it will come out zebra color, or is it polka dotted. Shoot, I can't remember now.

Seriously, I have NO clue............

You'll get white mutts. White rocks are simply an extended black, so adding another extended black will just give solid dominant white birds. MAYBE with some blue leakage if you use Blue Jersey Giants, but I doubt it.

Thanks! I was hoping I'd get a White Jersey Giant. Or is there already such a breed?

People need to stop hiding their Ohio photos.

I have more if you'd like...

I picked up a white JG there from a man from Ontario - five months old and she's HUGE! This is her in the "get acquainted cage" in the coop. The cochin - who is in a terrible molt - is playing "bring it on" with her - tough talk when she's stuck in a cage!

This is my other hen in a molt - she's about 2, but smaller than the other.

Yes, more, more I say!!

btw, very nice White. And, love the Cochin's stare - Before I even read your description I could just hear her growling.

Yeah - the funny part is, she hides in the coop all day because she gets picked on by the others - she doesn't know what she's doing taking on that big girl! Bianca (the white) didn't make a sound, just stared her down like - you can't be serious.

Here's some more pics from Ohio, the floor and the row of Giants. What brainwave put them on the top row above smaller birds?!
