Araucana thread anyone?

I think you would get ones that look like your male but carry the recessive white (at least for aome) and the cuckoo pair should make more cuckoo

Thank you. I thought for the cuckoo, I'd get 50% cuckoo and 25% or 50% black for some reason. He's a gorgeous cuckoo.

I mean, you might if they're first gen. But I know usually barring is dominant

Can someone tell me what colors I might get from pairing a recessive white pullet with my guyView attachment 2467453
And also a cuckoo with a cuckoo? Thanks I’m genetics impaired still. Appreciate your help. View attachment 2467457

blue wheaten and recessive white might give you blue/black/white chicks, some will have leakage.

cuckoos should give cuckoos.

a barred hen with non barred roo gives unicolour pullets (sex link).

Would it be the same if I paired the recessive white with a blue cockerel?

For the first pair, all the chicks would carry recessive white. Unless the rooster already carries recessive white, which would make half of the chicks white and half carriers. Their color (if not white) would depend on what color the hen is under the white.
The second pair would give you 50% single factor cuckoo cockerels, 50% double factor cuckoo (pure cuckoo) cockerels, 50% cuckoo pullets, and 50% non-cuckoo pullets.

I think so. but without leakage.

we don't know what genes are hiding under the colour that we can see so a few surprises are always possible.

Happy New Year ❤ May it be one of peace and good health for all sentient beings. Thank you for your help.
