Isn't he a cutie!?! I've probably said it on here 10 times, but I want to put this chocolate boy over a black Ameraucana and try to hatch a chocolate EEI have these cute visions of a puffy cheeked chocolate pullet with fuzzy feet
Yes! It's going to he so awesome!Chocolate male x black female makes sexlinks, too, where male offspring are black carrying chocolate and female offspring are outwardly chocolate.
do you see any genetic combo from Chonkers thay could produce a blue chick with a BA, BR, or RIR?
I think that's going to have to be another wait and see baby, but the most likely explanation is an egg mix-up, as Chonkers should not be able to produce blue with any of the breeds you listed.
That was my thought, I could 100% believe this is a Fizz Bang chick and coming from a brown egg it means the mother was a Barred Rock, so no dot on the head and as long as no barring sprouts, this would be a pullet right!?!Interesting, that does look very convincingly blue
I think I'm going with, this is a Fizzy chick, from a Barred Rock, therefore it is a pullet and has a 50% chance of laying a blue/green egg.Yeah, if the mother is barred and the father is not, then male chicks would have head spots and female chicks would not. Sometimes with blues the head spot blends in a bit so it's hard to tell, but that baby has a pretty dark head and pretty clearly does not have the barring head spot.
Idk but they are adorable!
