Barnevelder colours

[Multi chick]

Hi I'm planning on breeding Barnevelders. I would really like to breed blue laced ones but struggling to find any hatching eggs. If I cross a gold laced barnevelder cockerel over a blue laced hen will I get 50% gold and 50% blue or does it not work that way.

Also if I cross gold laced barnevelder cockerel over silver laced hen what colours would I get?

Many thanks

Yes to the first question. It's exactly the same kind of BBS breeding as solid colored birds, but with a pattern.

The gold cock over silver hen will give you gold girls and "golden" boys. The resulting cockerels will be split for gold and silver and can pass on either gene to their offspring.
