i'm pretty sure this hen is split to BC , thin tear drop and enlarged under the eye , smudged chest are signs to BC split

Fraza. So if u haven't BC or /BC. Give it a tray and mate him with this hen at least u can got vety nice grey d Split to Bc offspring.
Do not negligate the impotant role of the split issue. They are essential to keep a good blood line.
Mating ressesive mutation without going through split tends to reduce the size and intoduces weaknesess in the genome.
Keeping some regular grey and regular fawn is very smart.
If u agreed i sugest that u mate him with this grey. On second round u mate with het mother.
Next year u breed the offsprings of the two clutchs and u also can make some nack cross by breeding this cock with one of his offspring hen(baby)

haroun I have got him paired with this hen they’ve had two clutches sadly the first didn’t hatch, the second clutch I dropped the eggs when I was about to candle :cry: Ano bad mistake I felt really bad :shock: so maybe this spring when they breed again they will produce nice offspring

I would have done tour suggestion using this hens mother but I no longer have her I had to get rid of her as she wasn’t compatible with more than 1 bird even almost killed this little hen and as I have the aviry i couldn’t handle it :(
