I have one all black hen who shines green in the sun. She lays 2 eggs a day (she just started laying for the first time) her dad looked like this
400
and the mom is a pure rhode barr (not sure of what the dad was)
400
he had one son before he died that turned out like so
400
and the one I can't figure out is is this girl, Mooney
400
shes feather legged aswell. The rhode barrs arent.
 
The father, which looks like a French Birchen Maran, had feathered legs, according to the picture, and feathered legs are a dominant trait, so that's why both offspring have them. I'm guessing that the father and/or mother carried a black gene.
