I have this mutt chick who looks super cool. She has iridescent black feathers with an almost partridge pattern on her back and an almost spangled pattern on her chest. I love her back pattern and I was wondering what it is and how to breed it. I hatched her out from my BSL roo and my polish cross hen.

Her pattern is mixed, but is on partridge base.
She carries the pattern gene, & Melanizer that helps with creating Spangling, & or lacing when combined.

What parent do you think she got the partridge gene from? That’s the detail I’ve been most curious about.
