The "Ask Anything" to Nicalandia Thread

Lavender is recessive. Split to Isabel means that lavender is present on the genetic make up of the bird in question but in heterozygous form(Lav+/lav)

Two split lavender/Isabel chickens when cross together will produce= 25% Lavender/Isabel lav/lav, 25% LAV+/LAV+, 50% Lav+/lav(Splits)

Thank you! I just hatched 3 of them, 2 look quite similar and the other one is a bit darker

Not correct. There are no brassy back example listed on the chicken calculator.

Brassy back are Black Breasted Reds with a hackle melanizer(either Melanotic or Charcoal).

Quail is e+/e+, Melanizers and Columbian restrictor Co/Co. Since neither Black Breasted Red nor Brassy back have Columbian restriction, it's impossible to get the Quail patter.

BBR x Brassy back = incomplete brassy back(mid way between BBR and Brassy Back)

Thank you.

I'm back again!
1. Is it possible to create a red or black sexlinked silkie?
2. Are there barred silkies?

Sex Linked or Autosexing?

Sex Linked or Autosexing?

sexlinked

 

[nicalandia]

sexlinked

Silkies are normal chickens so the same Black/Red Sex link process works on them(Red male over Silver female) Black/Red male over Barred females.

 

[Chicken Quest]

Can I have an example of the silver allele in silkies?

Silver Partridge/Grey Silkies

Thanks! I wanted to know this so I can make sexlinked silkies to use as broodies in the future!

Also I have another blue silver Mille fleur pullet that is feathering in very Colombian. I was hoping you could clue me in to the genetics so I can figure out how to correct it.

@nicalandia I think you missed my post, sorry but really curious about this
