The iconic Appenzeller pattern: white feathers each tipped with a black V-shaped spangle, topped by the breed's forward-pointing crest ('bonnet').

Keeper tips for this variant

Active, flighty foragers that need space and high roosts; keep the crest dry and check it for mites/lice, which hide under the topknot.
