I don't have any photos. Wish I did. My last hatch of 11 with both parents split for mottling produced 2 with full mottling and 3 more with the split/juvenile mottling. It was clear at five weeks when I sorted them. Five had mottling but when they got their final adult plumage, only two expressed it.
The same Speckled Sussex rooster was both paternal and maternal grandfather. By the odds I should have had more split in that batch, but you know what the odds mean. Sometimes you do and sometimes you don't. Just because something does not follow the odds doesn't prove anything.
