Yep second generation, they’re parents were all black with some small white details and the only one that showed any kind of leakage was a rooster with gold/yellow hackles which was expected
This is kind of a continuation of a thread I posted years ago involving a lavender oegb x a silver sebright rooster in attempt to create a lavender laced rooster. I’ve made progress and my first lavender laced chick has been born. This is my second batch of chicks that have hatched from the...
I have been thinking for a while if it is possible to breed a chicken breed where the rooster displays his tail in the same manner a peacock would. I thought of this because it’s something my sebright roosters do when they fight or when they’re stretching. I’ve added a photo that I found of...
Sorry for the late response. For some reason BYC never notified me but this is a photo I saw that I fell in love with but this birds are from Brazil so I would like to make my own in the USA. Although the contrast may be difficult to see from a distance I think it beautiful
I’ve never understood the chick hatching total in theory couldn’t I just hatch enough eggs to get a pair of f1 and then breed those ? (Forgive me for my ignorance). And also thank you that will definitely save me from a google rabbit hole in the future but I’m also curious why such a thing would...
The person I spoke to created this bird in Australia. They didn’t specify but said the lavender came from three other breeds and it took them about 5 years but I suspect I can do it faster
I have actually spoken to someone who created lavender sebrights and they’ve told me that that’s how it’s done so I’m gonna try. I’d love to see more photos of them because there’s not that many.
That’s what I thought but I was looking through other threads here and they were talking about how the silver gene would get in the way and the bird may just be lavender after two generations. Any thoughts? Still new top genetics
I have wanted to start a project to create lavender lacing with silver sebrights and self blue ( lavender oegb). Is it possible? Looking at lavender genetics I should be able to get a lavender laced bird ( not to the breed standard of either parent) by breeding two heterozygous siblings from the...
