What would happen if a Melanistic Mutant hen was bred to a Chinese Ringneck cockbird. Thanks Joey
 
The offspring I believe could grow up to look like....

Regular Ringneck
Melanstic coloring and Regular Ringneck coloring
Melanstic Ringneck

I have a trio right now....2 Melanstic hens...1 cross cockbird. Hope go get 3 more Melanstic hens come spring. When I move them all into a larger pen.

Yaa eggs haha... Didnt plan it this way but between the shipping that killed more then 3/4 and later a dog, I only got 5 left. Two are MM hens, 2 CH.Ringnech hens and one Ch.Ringneck cockbird... There heavely guarded...heheh I can already see the male acting differnt and he is crowing...

I was wondering if I might get a really cool dark irradecent blue colored ringnecky looking bird... was me just being inpatiant and curious

In my experience- Chinese Ringneck on a Black (Melanistic) hen will result in Green Ringnecks. They will range in the amount of green color.

and What would happen if:
1. a Melanistic Mutant COCK was bred to a Chinese Ringneck HEN?
2. a White COCK was bred to a Chinese Ringneck HEN?
3. a White HEN was bred to a Chinese Ringneck COCK?
Thanks a lot!
