Keep working on egg color. I don't understand that, anyway.
I'll work on feather color if I get there before you finish with egg genetics.
I know a bit of feather color genetics. Don't know how I can help you though. On the other hand, I have the SOP on my right side, with a vast knowledge of it as well. We have covered Campines, Catalanas, Chanteclers, Cochins, Cornish, Crevecoeurs, and Cubalayas correct?

Correct. When I get home I will update the sheet.

so far... at least as of 2015 the genetics that control brown egg color is unknown. but there were at least 13 different genes as of 2013 that they knew of that controlled it. :/

I'll do what I can to have a basic outline. there is some gender dominance with eggshell color. so we could probably at the very least give a ball park of what eggshell color you might get by crossing them.

People don't even know the standard genes of egg color anyways. Brown is an open color. Let's focus on brown's relation to other egg colors, like blue, green, and white. ;)
