Cream Legbar Hybrid Thread

[nicalandia]

lol you can be wrong sometimes buddie. Im wrong about allot of things its ok. it makes your genetics knowledge stronger to find out why something happens unlike you expected it to.

Id love to learn about this from you. the tan ones are my favorite

I cant speculate on those chicks because I dont know for certain their true parents.....

CCL x with a Barred Cochin. the Barred Cochin are the only feathered shank chickens i had and i only had CCL roos in there with them. no other males were ever with them

Next spring ill have a separate pen with only a trio in there. that way their is no way to avoid the evidence at hand.

Also i edited my original post because you were not wrong. i changed it to un certain.

you might be wrong how do you know that the GLW wont effect the color of the head spot. on a cream legbar its yellow or cream. how are we so sure the GLW doesnt effect the color of the head spot. ive never seen a more perfect round spot. nor have i ever seen anything like this ones spot in a CCL male of female.

Keep us posted familypendragon. it will be interesting to see if this does turn out to be a male. Would be cool if the GLW does make a gold spot on the males. After all the CCL males passes his genes to the females and the GLW female passes hers to the males.

pure eb/eb Barred males or eb/eb B/b+ males do have a cream headspot, GLW e allele is eb instead of e+

now how do we know what Barring does ot eb? well we take a look at eb barred birds right?

here the Norwegian Jaerhon autosexing chicks... females are Darker and have a smaller headspot, males are lighter with a large headspot..

I got chicks! Thank you Amyable!

I'm thinking two girls and two boys?



#1



#2



#3


#4

You are correct, 1 and 2 are girls, 3 and 4 are boys. What a nice little hatch, congrats!

I've got 4 hatching under a broody as I type, woot!

thanks, that will help alot, because so far Extended black has been the most dominant e allele so far and would love to see that a gene in your birds may actually change that old school of thought

Thats a Female.... the headspot is Cream/yellow not brown...LOL...

Wow, seriously?? OK, so 2 differing opinion... at least I don't feel bad not knowing, LOL! If that is the case then 6 out of 7 are pullets - I wish I could bottle that! LOL! Now I wonder if the male or female has more influence on that... I will keep an eye on that one and see how it turns out. Now I HAVE noticed in many of my CCLs they have an off colored (though usually darker not lighter) spot on the triangle on their head which ends up being where their crest grows. Last CCL x GLW egg is in lockdown on day 20 so we should see how my ratio holds up soon, LOL!

lol that hilarious. I love how you change the subject to something toattally diffrent. your a master spin master. i got some Norwegian Jearhon from amy this year. Since your on the topic what in the genetics makes the adult males look like they have creamy yellow neck hackles

that's what maid me wonder. because gold seems to be dominate over silver. that's why i kinda thought the tan ones carried silver and the extended black dominate EE produced the black chicks with gold in them.

 

[nicalandia]

the headspot on eb/eb B/B males is much larger than the ones found on e+/e+ male chicks(CCL, Rhodebar, Welbars)

another example

Next is Pullet

Below is Rooster Chick

Marvin knows genetics im just open to thinking there might be an anomaly in genetics. but I'm only open to guessing it could be i don't have the knowledge

No, I was trying to make a case on how would a e+/eb cross(CCLxGLW) would still have a cream/yellow headspot

not only the males, the females also have that Dilution, it could be dominant dilute or Cream, so far I have yet to study them other than their chick down and e allele...
