With a codominant trait, phenotypes like fur color are combined. For example, if a black-feathered chicken breeds with a white-feathered chicken, their offspring will be both black and white. They will not be gray; rather, there will be spots of both colors. Codominance means that neither allele can mask the expression of the other allele. An example in humans would be the ABO blood group, where alleles A and alleles B are both expressed. So if an individual inherits allele A from their mother and allele B from their father, they have blood type AB.
