    wheaten silver columbian whites

    @Zawisty, I saw you mentioned Autosomal Red. I have this in my Silkies, Silkie crosses, & OEGBs. I usually see it in the hackles, saddles, & shoulders. I have some examples if you'd like I can share some pictures?

    wheaten silver columbian whites

    I'm still learning too. Light Sussex is one I just haven't learned much about. I guess the breed has really hasn't been much of an interest. I read Genetics forums here, & from other chicken sites, articles/studies.

    I go both. Sometimes down isn't clear enough. Like my one Brown chick that grew up Buff Columbian of Partridge base.

    wheaten silver columbian whites

    Okay, they're a yellow white color. I did go back to the place I found. I missed a part of the discussion. According to them they're Wheaten based too. Never mind. Juvenile plumage just didn't seem to fit when I was looking around.

    Weird, why does it resemble partridge with the leakage?

    Here's a few 5 week olds.one of my Partridge based silver Columbian chicks.(Old picture) I did find one place discussing their genetics also. I'll have to find it. Information is scarce for the breed genetics wise.

    wheaten silver columbian whites

    Looking at juvenile plumage of the Light Sussex shows some partridge patterning on the backs. But not all chicks will leak pattern in juvenile plumage. But I can do some more digging around, to double check. I don't know tons about the breed.

    wheaten silver columbian whites

    I'm not an expert on dominant white, but I know that it's abit difficult to prevent leakage of certain colors, like red, or occasionally black. I believe black helps the dominant white color be more even, & have less leakage. I maybe wrong though, but not quite sure.

    I'm not completely sure, but I think Light Sussex are Partridge based Silver Columbian like that of the Brahma.
