    I'll give a list soon as I'm on my computer. I've got 1 chick with 5 toes on 1 foot & 4 on the other. I know momma is 1 of my bantam sultans. She's black with white crest. I don't think I saw any signs of feathers. Which means Daddy is oegb, crevecoeur, or wcblack polish. Every other roo is buff...

    Sorry to jump in, but this fits with what I'm hatching.... Backyard mixed. Does it matter if the hen or roo has the pea comb? It's dominant regardless? My other question for combs is what's dominant between a pea comb, single comb, & v comb? Is feather legs dominant? 5 toes dominant? I can...

    thank you both! Would you start with red brown birds who are lighter for the lemon areas to start? Would that help in reaching a good lemon color? I'm curious as to how depth of color impacts or if it does. Can this be done with self blue (lavender) or is it blue only? Appreciate the info...

    Color genetics thread.

    All they said was blue. I could see taking couple of generations-if it was possible to have it become consistent. I was wondering if might get blue partridge, which would be neat, but also other potentials. I do have self-blue pullets & partridge cockerels (poorly marked I think) that once past...

    Question. I saw on a different chicken group page I'm on that crossing a partridge cochin to a blue Cochin would result in a lemon blue. Is that right? No indication of its a self-blue (lavender) or blue. The person said it didn't matter regarding which color behind to which parent. Is this...

    thank you. I was half there with getting it.

    Wow. If the parents were reversed would that reverse the offspring? I'm thinking it wouldn't. That's due to the gold over silver right?

    What would crossing a partridge cochin bantam to a silver penciled cochin bantam produce? Someplace I read & don't recall where that it would result in both patterns? These are my 2 girls & my boy. All are 6 months. I'm not planning on letting any hatching happen before a year old. But I want...

    Thank you. I appreciate the explanation & you sharing your knowledge. I know I've a lot to learn. It's amazing you can tell all that from the photos! She's from Ideal....part of a crested special the feed store had gotten. I went researching & found a black crested white polish (project they...

    Or the brabanter it's similar with a black crest. That bird looks neat too!

    Gorgeous birds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Question out of curiosity. I'm far from being able to do this, but my mind gets ideas & curious...... I've a black crested white polish that is heavily marked from whatever the mix is used to get the black crest. I know it's a project color, etc. I love how my...

    Thanks. Not something I'm anywhere near ready to tackle. Just curious since right now I've silver penciled pullets & several different colored roos. It dawned on me that as of yet I haven't come across that color in cochins.

    Color genetics thread.

    OK....not sure if my head is clear....please bear with me & thanks..... I'm wondering if a silver penciled cochin bantam hen were bred to a blue cochin bantam roo what would result? I'm curious if there's a way to have a blue partridge in the cochins? Would it involve the double breeding like...
