I'm curious if anyone has any Silver Spangled Hamburg chicks because all of the ones on the internet don't really resemble mine. It's dad is a golden duckwing and mother is silver spangled.... It's the colored one

If its parents were of different varieties, it likely won't turn out Silver Spangled in color (and it doesn't appear to be right now). That's why it doesn't look like the ones you've seen on the Internet. I don't know enough about genetics to tell you exactly what it will look like when it is mature, but it may turn out looking like one parent, a combination of the two, or completely different.

Yeah, the genetics are confusing... Some say that females take after one parent and males take after both. I personally hope it is a mix of both because they're both beautiful birds.
