Would anyone be willing to explain the important points of breeding partridge colored chickens? I love Welsummers, PRocks and would like very much to have a flock of one or both. But a newbie like me trying to read the breed threads are like a 3rd grader trying to read "War & Peace"!
One is almost 1000 pages, and info about genetics or correct pencilling and the like rather scattered around in no particular order of importance. Not that I am being critical, but it is hard for me to learn that way, like reading only random pages in a text book then trying to put it all together on my own.
Im starting to get a handle on the basic genetics lingo and symbols etc, but I would really like some specifics about partridge coloration and pattern from "folks in the know".
