Saw this posting on my local Craigslist and got confused! I didn't think the BBS genetics worked this way. I thought Bl (blue) was dominant, if they are both "visually black" wouldn't that mean they can't carry the blue gene and there is no way to get blue/splash offspring? Maybe I'm missing something....
"Hello Chicken Lovers. I have a four month old breeding pair of gorgeous BBS pure bred Ameraucanas. While they are visually black these are Blue/Black splits, so you will get blue, black and splash offspring. These are beautiful quality breeding birds from Cree/Ribbick/Meredith lines. Please email me with further questions. Thank you for your interest."
