POLISH THREAD Talk about your Polish and post pics of your Polish

[Boggy Bottom Bantams]

the black roo over chocolate hens is just going to give you all blacks, porbably why you had so many of them, works the same in blue breeding as well.
IF they are all pure duns you have, then yes, you have 2 khaki, 1 dun, and 1 black there, the khaki being the lightest ones

I read the thread title and thought we were talking about Polish people.
I was gonna post a picture of Dh

I realized when the category was breeds - - - that we were talkin chickens, not people!

I'm a little confused... out of eight chicks, only two were black, so I'm unclear on your comment as to why I had "so many of them".
Also, could you please clarify, is the term "dun" used interchangeably with the term "chocolate"? And if so, is that with all breeds of chickens, or do some breeds use the term dun and others use the term chocolate? I have not heard of a dun polish before.
Also, do you breed polish chickens?

The last thing I have a question about regarding your post is this: you are saying if you put a black roo in over all blue hens, all resulting offspring will be black?

There is a dun gene and a chocolate gene. They are two different things. In the US the only thing with the actual chocolate gene is Serama. Chocolate color in Polish is the dun gene, just the hobby name is chocolate.

This is not right. Black X blue will give you 50% blue, 50% black. Same goes for chocolate X black.
