hi roomies, can i ask when a male and female has chicks that carry the bald spot gene to the chicks , can i breed the chicks when older if they are a nice stature and dont have the bald spot on their heads to other mutations as i know they pass on from their parents thanks smoggy7

Once the chicks are old enough, yes you can breed to other mutations or even normals that don't have the bald spot, reducing the chance of actually getting them in your clutches.
