I can understand when a topic at hand is not to your liking, and if you want to talk combs, and tail angles or beak length, by all means, do so, I am sure there are more than a number of people that would be happy to engage you in that conversation. But I'm sorry, as tedious as you may find the...

I am the first to admit that I am a novice at not only chickens, but this breed in particular. But I am not a novice at breeding and showing. Because I do have a passion for these birds and a mind that wants to learn, but does not take anything at face value from anyone (Had I been there when...

Type as a whole is the number one quality that breeders should be aware of, I am in total agreement with that. That and blue eggs!! lolol. The body type, to me, and I could be erroneous in thinking this way, is the silhouette. The rest is the color fill. Breed type is just as important as color...

Quote: Quote: Wow is right. Betta fish. A cello can win cello class even if it's a red loss marble. Genetic grizzles have won Marble class, genetic marbles have won butterfly class. Most winning HMs are HMPK crosses, I have taken BOS with a HM that was a multi generation VT/HMPK cross, and...

Actually.. No. Chickens are exactly like one animal I have bred and shown. But don't forget that phenotype is based on genotype. An animals looks are based on their genes. Yes, you can get a "cream" looking bird without the ig gene, but this breed is based on cream. If someone could take a...

I know this is an old post (almost a year ago), but the link illustrates some thoughts I have had. Assuming you have a cream pair, and they are indeed both cream, there is absolutely no way for you to not get cream babies from them. Cream is a double recessive, for it to express you must have...

Yes, I mean like all birds are on a gold or silver base. The cream legbar has to be gold, because ig does not effect silver, and it would not be too presumptuous to assume that ig stands for inhibits gold. If you can see a bird is cream, it's a gold bird that is expressing a double recessive...

I have to admit, this comment confuses me, and I have seen it said several times. It confuses me because the gold will always be in the breed because the cream legbar is the result of ig inhibiting gold. So genetically they are gold with a double recessive dilute gene effecting the color gold...
