okay, so the salmon are wheaten based, but you get what i'm talking about now a bit better. My distinction between blue penciled and blue partridge (with lacing) is that blue partridge (with lacing) is gold/wildtype and blue penciled is silver. Like partridge and silver penciled. Now, the breeder's birds were not gold/wildtype but silver, plus the mahogany gene which changed the white areas from the silver gene to sometimes have red streaks and smudges or sometimes just a dirty, red brown cast that was obvious in good light. Or so they said. I don't know about the autosomal red, maybe that was their problem.
My question: Is the difference between those partridge wyandottes of my past posts all in my head and if not what is the difference, genetically speaking? I am suggesting it could be the mahogany gene.
here are the pics again:
