How do you tell percent?

Body type, skin color, coloration. He would technically be 90% Orpington since Australorps are Australian Black Orpingtons. I just divide the two types for people to see the mix.

Oh yes, I understand that... I will def wait till spring as well.. if anything, for peace of mind!
I had one Silkie and three Cochin bantams... I rehomed them because they were forever broody and I thought they’d be happier where they would have a rooster and be able to hatch! I loved them!! They were so adorable! I was very sad for a long time when they were gone.. but they are happy where they are...

This is not for show, but here! For you WhoDatChick! Front to back: Holly, Hylia, and Red! Two pullets and one cockerel!
