question re: patterns from breeding

i asked in the discord but didn't receive a conclusive answer so i'm just tossing it in a forum post...hopefully it's fine to post in this forum!

for the roll pattern splicer you can buy with eggs: does it roll any pattern, or only from the patterns available to buy as enPatterns? like do you have a chance for double lace/half lace/neck speckle or are those patterns through breeding Only?

as well: is it possible for pullet pool chicks (or generated farmhouse chicks) to spawn with double lace/half lace/neck speckle at all?

Hi! Generally, recessive genes will not be randomly generated in any situation (except Chickrew) and can only be obtained via breeding! This is mainly to make those genes feel more special/rarer. I'll add something to the items info page to mention this.
