I think he's a normal pied... well, he's a pied at any rate, but I think he's a normal one.
Sorry :(

Oh, thats a shame :(

This male pied 'Mcflurry' has a lot of white on him anyhow, one side of him is almost all white despite his wings. I think I'll experiment and breed him with a split pied or my white hen, and see what happens!
