Can 2 brown eyed australorps produce black eyed chicks?

Can they? Or do I need to add one black eyed and mate with one of them to get black eyed chicks?

Just click "report" on your own post in that thread, and you should get a popup that lets you type an explanation, and then a mod will see it.

Does any of you know about chicken eye color genetics? (I don't.)

If the parents had a relative be mixed with one that they're related to, then there's a slight chance you might get a black eyed chick. However, if you want baby black eyed chicks, the best option it to get a black eyed chicken to then produce black eyed chicks. Hope that helps!

But these tho are not related, is there any chance that they maybe produce black eyed chicks?

Probably not unless you get a chicken that's black eyed

I know someone knows eye color genetics but I can't think of who it is. Maybe @The Moonshiner? But it may be @Amer.

I do not. Maybe it was @MysteryChicken

Much as I've searched, I haven't been able to find a lot definitive about eye color genetics... Black or very dark brown eyes seem to be connected to the level of dermal melanin present, but I believe I've heard of a recessive dark brown eye gene existing...

Interested in seeing what others with stronger knowledge have to say. I'd love to read more on this subject!
