We also developed a chocolate colored version of our mottled blacks by adding brown.

The amount of mottling a bird gets will increase after each molt,reaching their maximum mottled potential by their third or fourth year, just like our mottled blacks.

Each white feather has small to large random chocolate mottling or chocolate palm like patterns or a combo of both.

They breed 50% true to color/pattern, also producing a low number of chocolate palms and marbled chocolates.

They are on a heterozygous black/black winged bronze base with gray, brown and Narragansett.

The mottled chocolate genotype is Bb' cgcg ee nn males and Bb' cgcg e- n- for females.
