joza2210 Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Hello as most of you know i have a mottled pekin pair: As you can see they dont have much white in them ... do you think they will get more white feathers as they get older ? how old do they look ? i think they are young because we can not cock-a-doodle-doo yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 They look about the 17-20 week mark, teh cockerel is quite mature looking They probably wont get any more white but the black does look nice and shiny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom123 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 yes they look about 18 weeks ish, but the white does increase as they got older so they may well be a lot whiter. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Grey Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Yep. They definitely get more white as they get older. Mine is a year old now and still getting more white mottles. When she was 17 months she only had the one white feather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
