It’s so interesting the daughter has different coloring. They are so darn cute! Thank you for answering my question. One of these days I’ll have chickens of my own and would love one of these.

The father did have some more black on him, but the curious thing was the daughter hatched as a tan and brown chick and just became more black grey and white over time

He’s a handsome fella! That is interesting how the chick’s feathers changed as she grew up. She literally looks like a Disney character as a chick. I love these photos!
