minus-squaremogul@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·1 year agoSo I raised American Game Fowl and there is a thing where males would look sorta like females and were referred to as Hennies. They could pop up in other breeds like some Asian breeds and they could be bred for the trait of hen feathers.

We call them Asian ladybirds.
I’ve never heard that term before.
