Hello Mia, and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
Mutt chickens express dominant genes.

That's a good way to put it, Tonya. I'll remember these words of wisdom.

Howdy BYC community! Here are a few things about myself.

I've been working with chickens for as long as I can remember. I inherited the nickname 'The Chicken Whisperer' because of this.

I joined BYC to get advice for my flock as well as give some to those I can help!

I have a flock of about 20 chickens. Most of them were hatched from home !

My most unique chicken is Snowball. She was found unsexed in a container of Buff Orpingtons. She was born without an eye although she was the only survivor of the other chicks i got. She's about five years old and still going strong!

This is where I need some insight. Since I hatch all my own chicks from home now, I use eggs laid by my flock. One of the chicks I've hatched recently is completely black and has a cushion comb. None of my chickens have either of those traits so I'm wondering... If I got her egg from my nesting box, then where did she come from?

Welcome to BYC! A great place!
