Does this look like it may have the frizzle gene? Grace is about 3 weeks old. Rooster is RIR/silkie mix and I believe the mom is a light brahma.

Yes it does to me.

Which chicken would that have come from? Genetics are so interesting. I am new to hatching.

If one parent isn't frizzled, I don't believe you can get a frizzle from the cross. Its a dominant gene.

If she's frizzled she had a frizzled parent
