jam Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Hi all, One of my 7 week old black pekin chicks has lots of white feathers, but the other black pekin hasnt got a single white feather. Is this normal? will the white feathers soon go? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Possibly not completely pure black, genetically speaking. A bit of something else in its ancestry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Some black pekins hatch with a yellow tummy and chest but if its getting its second lot of feathers and some are white then chances are it will end up mottled or just a mismarked black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
