Sorry, very specific request!
Does anyone have a photo of a black and white mottled body pekin with green black wings? Or even another breed. I'm just curious about what these babes will look like when they grow us. Also does this colouring have a name? 😁

is that what you were looking for?

light isn't great but the black has a green sheen in the sun
 
Peggy Sue is a sweetheart. You won't get a nicer chicken than pekins.
 
I've got 3 hens and a cockeral. I hatched 3 babes but I'm happy with 4 I only got them to dig up the garden and eat the bugs. But the babes are making me think about keeping more. His body feathers are all coming in white and black but his wings are black green. Hard to get a photo of him though he jumps around šŸ˜‚

cute!! He looks brown and fawn in that light. Is he really black and white?

Pekins are not the best at scratching up the garden, I find. Foot feathers get in the way.
 
šŸ˜‚ You're right! No he's definitely black and white but his down is still there and looks fawny brown in the sun.
