I had not been reading this thread. Did you post pictures of her somewhere in it?does anyone know what the genetic colour make up of my red silkie hera is. @NatJ do you know?
Maralita chill’s with Quails…
Her flight feathers are a mixture of black and red but it is only visible when her wings are pulled back. She also has an odd eye colour.I had not been reading this thread. Did you post pictures of her somewhere in it?
Assuming the color is red all over, without obvious black or white, I would expect:
gold gene (s+), not Silver (S)
probably Wheaten (E^Wh), but several of the other e-locus genes may be possible
Likely Columbian (Co) or Dark Brown (Db) or both, to restrict the amount of black.
If there is any amount of non-red showing the tail and the big feathers of the wings, it will be either white (Dominant White, I) or black (i+ lack of dominant white.) Unless it's blue or chocolate or some other color, which seems unlikely but not impossible. I think it is more likely to be black than any other color (that would identify at least three genes: lack of Dominant White or dun/khaki is i+, lack of blue is bl+, lack of chocolate is Choc+).
