Hi All, wondering if anyone knows anything about this feather variation that is cropping up in some of these crosses. They feathers seem to swirl around the base horizontally rather than extending straight downward, some on one side only, some on both. Pictured is one with one side swirling. Since I am not breeding to a standard, not too concerned unless it indicates something connected genetically to other issues that could be harmful in the long run. I have three breeds going, Langshans, Svarthonas, and Ameraucanas, all BBS coloring, but these look like they don’t have much Langshan. I Haven’t kept any Ameraucana cocks as they all seemed so over the top in libido, so the breeding cocks have either been pure Langshan or a Svarthona/Langshan cross, he looks like a medium sized fibro Langshan. Thanks!
