Cochin breeding, genetics, and showing

[curious chickee]

I was just commenting that my Easter Egger has the same color pattern, not that yours is a EE.

how did you get those colors on your EE?

Blue Wheaton ameracauna ( EE) cock, not positive on hen as it came from a neighbor.

anyone know what's in his genetics. he's a blue mix i suspect because i can't find a blue that looks like him and i would like to recreate him.

This bird appears to be a Blue however he is also showing Autosomal red in the wingbow.

how do you replicate that? i want a look alike of him.

You most Lilly would have a another blue hen... Because threat coloring trait is on him is I have a 100%pure blue Cochin hen u should be golden

If I could speak proper English then this might sound half way decent XD
any way u mush need a 100% pure blue Cochin hen.. This is because the genetics stay the same and the male coloration on his side will be passed to his/her offspring... Though genetics are tricky and Mother Nature always plays tricks.. You may have to line breed (which can be good)

and what about if my rooster has lost interest in the hens and i need a younger rooster to replicate him what would i do then? because shadow is old.

If u go to the vet u they can extract semen for like $60 and u could artificiality put it in a hen with a eye dropper or or something alone those lines

This won't help if he is sterile, which is very possible. Frequently accompanies loss of interest.
