Farrah Fawcett Hackles

(1/3) > >>

Guest:
Since my Wheaten Ameraucana hen went through her molt this fall, she has now grown all of her feathers back and has  what I would call \"Farrah Fawcett hackles\".  It really looks like someone took a comb and brushed her side hackles out and back. :/  

There is a question in here...

Should I be concerned with this new trait?  Will this be passed to future generations?

I will try to get a closeup picture today.  

Sharon Yorks:
I\'m eager to see your pictures. I have an EE that\'s feathers grew back weird after her molt.

Guest:
Ba ha ha!  That is exactly what they look like!  Thanks for sharing.

I didn\'t get to take a pic before dark...will try again tomorrow.

Many years ago say about 30 I had this in silver bantams and it proved to be inherited.

dak:
Is this somehow related to tufts?
