REDCHEQHEN Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 Am I right in thinking that a red cheq with black splashes is a cock - or does the black splashes apply to both sexes (and not sex related) I don't know the parentage
philg50 Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 If youngster is a black splash cock the mother was a red cheq hen IMO.

greenlands Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 Be careful,i've had them with what appears to be black splash but on closer examination they have had realy dark brown and been a hen.
