realy stucked #-o , the pied , coild be /isa , the flank dots are very strange, could it be a BAD BF ! very nice bird but the pied factor has destroyed its mutation.

Okay thanks, so whatever it does carry... Would both parents carry this gene? Or would it be only the father? How would you get a full one of whatever it's split to and minus the pied markings? Thanks!

hi
as isaid , the pied mutation has completely modified any possible sign of split for , now i'm asking my self the thin tear drop is realy a thin or is pied does some thing to it ?!
if u don't know its blood line , you should go by breeding test , with only pure hens with no white and no a single white dot in the feathers .
pure grey , pure fawn are best , but if u want u can add a pure Grey/fawn BB , or BF etc...
but never with a pied , white , saddleback except if u like pieds !

Okay thanks, I wondered about the cheek patches. I didn't realise you could get faint pied.
