OK so here they are. Lady Gaga is a recognized serama colour in the EAP, but I don't remember which, and it's probably wrong in the first place (the standards are written in German, so I google translated them, which can be very inaccurate). And Cruella is a mix coloured girl

Hmm, I don't recognize any pure-breeding variety in Gaga. 🤔 I see some partial lacing, gold and possibly autosomal red (I'm not overly familiar with the gene, but the depth of red on him is reminiscent of birds I've seen others say have it), blue, and yellow skin. Cruella looks to me like a heavily leaky blue mottled, definitely gold-based as well, plus she has white skin and a crest.

From that, and knowing that Cruella is a mix so might not be pure for all the dominant genes she is expressing, I can see you getting a variety of colors based on gold, they might have zero, one, or two blue genes (meaning black markings might be black, or be diluted to blue or splash), at least part should have a crest like their mother, and either all will have white skin or half will have white and half will have yellow.

Looking at the chicks in your other picture, it looks like one might be mottled, meaning Gaga would have to be carrying the gene as well. Does the yellow chick with the dark saddle marking on its back in the group of chicks nearest you in that picture look brownish in person or is that just the lighting? From the picture, that looks like chocolate. That is a sexlinked gene, so Gaga would have to be carrying it if it is showing up in his chicks and not on either parent (at least to my eye), and only his daughters would inherit it. The alternative is dun, which neither parent appears to have, so I don't think that's it. I do see at least a couple that appear to have crests as well, and I don't see any yellow skin so it looks like Cruella might be pure for her white skin.

Soooo, long story short, going off of what I see in your pictures, I could see them feathering out primarily reddish or red-brownish with blue, black, or splash markings (or chocolate if the one really is that dark brown color and it's not just the lighting in the picture!). The dark one at the back and the one with the saddle marking might be primarily black ( / chocolate as mentioned) with red leakage, and the saddle marked baby might be mottled as well based on the amount of yellow on it (the mottling gene tends to add more yellow to the chick down).

Take all of this with a grain of salt, as mixed color crossings like this are far outside my wheelhouse with genetics!


I’ve been watching movies this weekend lol

Whatcha watching? :pop

Whatcha watching? :pop
Clash of the Titans (the 2010 one not the 80s one) and the sequel Wrath of the Titans. They’re good. We watched Clash of the Titans in the hospital but I only saw part of it so I wanted to watch the whole thing and then found out there was a sequel and an original hahah there’s a lot of other movies we watched too so I’m gonna watch some of those next. Like rise of the planet of the apes. I think that’s what it’s called.
