Crowing
If this is better suited for genetics i will ask for it to moved. I wasn‘t really sure where to post this though.
This chick was hatched out of my own flock after i removed the two chickens with visible cross beak. One a hen, who lays soft eggs, the other a cockerel, who i thought wasn’t mating with my hens. This chick was hatched out a couple weeks ago and the eggs were collected two to three months after the cock was re-homed. Can cross beak be recessive?
Potential mothers:
One white silkie
Silkies of many colors i dont know. They look grey to me with buff coloring around their necks.
Buff cochins
Millie Fleur D’uccles
Potential Fathers:
Buff Silkie
Millie Fleur D’uccle
Black/ grey cross beak Silkie?
Pictures of the baby and adult birds:
I couldn’t find pictures of the buff Cochins. The two naked necks i included because they’re in my flock. I’m pretty sure they’re not this chicks mom.
Rooster i re-homed but the hens look very similar to him. The hen that hatched him out actually looks just lik him.
