that's true.. some "Buff" Laced wyandottes are red enhanced and don't look buff at all..

I know this an old thread, but maybe I can get an answer. What if I crossed dominant white with a gold spangled bird? What birds carry the dominant white gene?

well using the chicken calculator seems like you would end with white patterned gold spangled

I would use a Red Pyle OEG

here is the cross made using henks calculator




a Red Pyle genotype(e+/e+, I/I) crossed with a golden spangled genotype(eb/eb, Db/Db, Pg/Pg, Ml/Ml)

I am using a Red Pyle OEG Bantam hen and a Thuringer baardhoen rooster as reference but any breed with same genotype could be used

here is a Thuringer baardhoen Goudzwartgetoept haan(Hann means rooster) and Thuringer baardhoen Goudzwartgetoept hen(hen means hen..

)



Now here is what that cross would look like(Red Pyle crossed with Golden Spangled)


I say they look very nice...

I'll be hatching some gold spangled Brabanters this spring. A white patterned gold Brabanter would be cool. Europe has chamois Brabanters which are orange with white spangles. I could get pretty close. Is there someplace I could look up what breeds have the proper genes?
