Citrus Sablepoot X SL Wyandotte

[Rennie]

What would be the most likely outcome of

A Citrus/Lemon sablepoot Cock and a Bantam Silver laced Wyandotte

The reason im asking is purely for info and not to actually breed them, I have my lonely wyandotte in with a sablepoot cock and hen and have a sneaky feeling he is treading them both, Im trying to breed the sablepoots so im removing the SLW eggs so not to get any mixed in.

However if i could get more info maybe i would consider leaving some eggs in or maybe even incubating a few ,

guess no one knows or cares lol

That would be pretty awesome, send me the eggs if my hen goes broody?

I'm quite close to you, do you know Burton-Upon-Trent? I live about 3 miles 'way from there.

Thats what i thought to..

Yeah i know where burton on trent is, Ill remember you when you need them lol -- good luck on getting a broody though, when you want one you cant get one ..

The coloration will be sex-linked. Males will be very light partially laced, females may be partially laced or just weird looking, kinda like a partridge color. They will be gold, possibly with the lemon/citron influence.

If a Partridge wyandotte is what i would get ..the eggs are going in the incubator as soon as i can !!

How would i get silver sablepoots ?

By not crossing the original Sablepoot to a Wyandotte.

But to get the color, one way is to cross it back to the original Sablepoot parent, but remember - Wyandottes and not the same kind of spangling/lacing that the Sablepoot are, so you may get some weird colors in the mix.

You won't get partridge as in the true Partridge color though, you'll likely get a weird partially or double laced color.

I think it might be interesting to see the results still,

As for the silver on the sablepoots, Ive read on here that a mottled x mille fleur would get the silver back into it , If i cross the first generation, Does that sound about right ?
