Hi all,
A friend gave me some eggs to hatch from what was mostly a blue/black/splash flock. She had another rooster recently introduced a blue rooster to the flock which has red or copper in his hackle and saddle feathers. Several of the chicks have hatched with chestnut colored faces. Is this a color fault? Is it a color variety that has a name? Pic of dad in question and the chicks included.
The beebs are stinkin' cute, but I want to make sure I don't misrepresent colors should I sell any.
