Thanks for posting more photos.
Normally Splash birds have the "Splash" effect all over them and not just in the hackle, back and saddle area. Him being what appears to me as completely white on the rest of his body leaves me wondering, I have not seen that before on a Splash bird. Hopefully more folks come by and give their opinions.
That color patterning on the splash boys happens quite often in my dad's wyandotte bantams...I think it is just the differences in a certain bloodline...Most of my splash birds in the Marans have more bold patterning with whole feathers of blue or black mixed throughout the whole body...but its really kind of like how blues can be several shades...same with splash with how much color it has...I've even had a couple of splash birds over the years that look completely white but if you look closer have smaller darker feathers hiding in amongst the white. Just one of those things
