Whiting Blue Color Pattern

[Iluveggers]

Got this lovely accidental boy in a fall order. He is a Whiting True Blue. We have a Buttercup rooster now, but will only keep one (a friend is taking whichever we don’t keep).

Wondering about what pattern he looks like, and what genetics he may carry? I like the smaller comb, and would assume he will pass along the beard and some type of colored egg genetic? He is white with spatterings of grey mixed in. Has a slight rust tint coming in along his back which has just started to show, almost like someone colored his feathers lightly w colored pencil. I know he’s a mix so it’s hard to nail anything down! 17 weeks now.

Whitings don't really have any colors, they were never finished. He's likely to carry a bunch of color genes.

When I had Mosaics (mixed bag) I bred to black. I was able to get just one clean looking black and culled the rest. From her I've gotten a majority of ER offspring, but a few decent black. It's a work in progress.
