BYC Genetic/Breed Calculator Huge Task Ahead!

I consider you one too, you sure can retain a lot

Hmm. New signature.

 

[BlackHackle]

Hmm. New signature.

Yea, the other one was too confusing for me

Yea, the other one was too confusing for me

Made total sense to me.

 

[BlackHackle]

Made total sense to me.

I'm sure I won't change this one

 

[BlackHackle]

Oh, my new signature is the first verse of It's Gonna be OKAY

Cool I think most are working on the genetics of feather types right now. I'm sure they'd love your help.

If we had known this before I wouldn't have spent 4 days studying leg color. oh well, now I consider myself an expert.

What I mean by breed traits isn't the genetics of it all (I do know a little bit about dominant/recessive comb types, and I know a little about the way muffs/beards and leg feathers are passed down) what I mean is that I know the traits of purebred chickens (like, that a RIR has yellow legs, has a single comb, lays brown eggs, that sort of thing) if you needed help on your breed trait chart.

Oh. I believe the chart is done, but you might want to proofread it.

Most black birds cary Ml, some will carry the pattern gene(Pg and along with Ml are powerful melanizers: Moore, J.W. and Smyth, J.R. (1971). Melanotic, key to a phenotypic enigma of the fowl. J.Hered.) So if many all black birds are already E/E, Pg/Pg and Ml/M, why when you add the blue B/bl+ gene you dont get the same pattern as Blue Andalusians? Studies by W.C Carefoot(1988) confirmed that they are E/E, Co/Co, Pg/Pg, Ml/Ml source: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/00071668808417040

This would be amazing as I have been breeding chicks and have been unknown to what will come out, like one came out with a naked neck from her mother!! I wasn’t suprised but it was just cool to see.
Now I’m just waiting to see what my greenxtan eggs should look like!

which colors would you say the parents are?

I can probably give you a ballpark.
