Hello!
I recently acquired a cockerel who’s mom is a black copper Marans and dad is an ameracauna. I am wondering if he breeds with my EE if the chicks could be olive eggers or if they will carry the blue egg gene.
Thanks for responding! So is it accurate to say that the other 50% of his offspring would likely lay brown eggs, maybe even dark brown like the Marans?Statistically speaking only 50% of his offspring are expected to lay green eggs, because you can't always count that the EEs will pass their blue/green shell genetics
Brown on the light side since they would have inherited only 25% of Maran geneticsThanks for responding! So is it accurate to say that the other 50% of his offspring would likely lay brown eggs, maybe even dark brown like the Marans?
