Barred Rock Roo bred to Splash Rock Hen =?

[chickensNpoodles]

I would like to know if anyone has bred a barred rock roo over a splash rock hen. What would the result be. I am trying to get black rock chicks. Or a barred rock roo over a blue rock hen.

You will get Blue Barred rocks. If I am not mistaken. If it was the reverse Splash roo X Barred hen then you would have sex-linked Blue Barred Roos and Blue hens.


The other one would give you a 50% Blue Barred chickens and 50% Barred chickens. The reverse Blue roo X Barred hen would give you 25% Blue Barred roos, 25% Blue hens, 25% Barred roos, and 25% Black hens.


Try playing on this site...http://kippenjungle.nl/Overzicht.htm that is where I got my information.

But for black rocks you need a solid Dark male and a Barred hen. A common link is a red male over a barred hen. So you can Identify the boys from the girls. Hope this helps a little..

I don't understand how to use that calculator. How do I get it off the duck wing example?

OK, on http://kippenjungle.nl/kruising.html -
What you would do to figure out your cross is:
1- For the Rooster click show examples, then chick Blue.
2- For the Hen click show examples, then chick Blue.
3- Scroll down till you see Calculate Crossing, click the tab.
4- You should know see a list of new colors pop up under that Calculate Crossing tab.
5- Now click the first one should be Splash unicolor, click the Continue with this Female tab.
6- Go back up to the top, the splash hen should be where the blue hen was.
7- For the Rooster click show examples, then chick Barred.
8- Scroll down till you see Calculate Crossing, click the tab.
9- You should know see a list of new colors pop up under that Calculate Crossing tab. All should be Blue Unicolor Barred..

I hope this helps..
