Any Updates on these projects? Has anyone even tried to crossed a Barred Silkie with barred ameraucana to improve shank color?

Wow so Informative

would be nice to "Test" to see if its Dermal or Epidermal Melanin.. unfortunately to perfrom this test the bird must be dead..

Quote: So nice, its a shame that the shanks are still not slate/blue

I have yet to produce a cuckoo male with slate leg, and not because I cant do it, is just that I am still gathering the genetic material need it for such a complex breeding.... but I get closer with time..

I am in the same boat.. but not lavender, as I lack this gene in Nicaragua, but I´ll produce Barred males with slate colored shanks,

even more diluted than a single barred roo.. thats because of the double effect of barring

keep us updated on their progress

ok seems you got lost on one of my post.. you see the two birds I posted? they are not supose to have Black/slate shanks, first because Id and Barring prevents it...BUT both birds have white silkie mothers, seems like recessive white and Lavender are able to partially inhibit Id(responsible for...

do the Fibromelanotic cross with your lavender and report to us ok, we will all learn from you

it could be recessive white, but will know for sure if it turns out to be fully white when adult.. have you try to introduce Fibromelanotic to the mix? I believe the same gene inhibiting Id and Barring allowing for light slate shanks could allow Fibromelanotic to enhance the shank color to a...

wow. thats a very strange bird. never seen lavender leak black at all, its genetic freak, you should keep it and see if you reproduce its effect and maybe pin down what causing this effect

thanks. keep us updated on this project

yes..just like Rhodebars...but Ameraucana...

I was talking about a progect I had on my mind(with all the genetics figured out) about a Red Barred Ameraucana that was also autosexing.. but I´m very far from applying this into practice

No.. the eventual Goal is a cuckoo/Barred Lavender Ameraucana... man I wish I had all the genetics you have at your hand, I see you guys and I just cant help around with the breeding..

his shanks are still too light(light slate)

they look dominant white to me.

are white empordanesa recessive white? or dominant white?

no, I´m only interested on split lavenders that carry the barring gene
