Cream Legbar Hybrid Thread

Cemany rooster mated to CCL hen will produce Sexlinks, the Pullets will hatch with Black down and Black Skin they will lay light blue eggs... they will look like regular cemany but with creast.... The Cockerels will hatch with Black down with a cream headspot and will have white skin and clear shanks, they will look like barred Leghorns with a creast.... IF you want a Creasted Cemany that lays blue eggs then continue using the Black F1 Females with regular Cemani, but they will no longer be Autosexable or Sexlinked

Thank you for answering. I have silver laced Wyandottes, but I hate them. Lol. They're just not my favorite personality.
I'm not too worried about the sex-link cross being sexable at hatch, since the Creams were so easy to see the males at two weeks, even without already knowing, the boys combs were always bigger.
I wonder what they'd look like crossed with Cochins? I have two blacks, a blue and a self-blue.
We are getting our incubator next week, and I'd like to practice using it before I use the Cream Legbar eggs.

I wonder what lavender would do to ccl. If i breed lavender in would it turn the whole bird lavender. It would have to right. Would be cool if lavender replaced the grey and black. Or the cream areas

if you breed a self lavender pullet with a CCL rooster all of the birds will be Black Barred, no lavender barred, as lavender is recessive, now if you cross both F1s x F1s and hatch about 100 chicks you should be able to see some e+/e+ B/B lav/lav ig/ig birds, they would be lavender barred with the hackle or saddle of a Silver color(lav + ig would do that to gold)

Amazing... Edit.. genetically related post... now this Further proves that e+/eb birds do look like pure e+/e+ or atleast close to pure... I will guess that these cross where they were chicks looked like chipmunk stripped chicks(like CCL) instead of the Penedesenca chicks right?... now to the cool part... you can have Cream Penedesencas that lay Olive eggs if you do a F1xF1 and hatch about 50 eggs...

too diluted for my taste... here take a look at what lavender does to a regular Brown Leghorns... now add Double Barring and Cream and you will get a Triple Diluted bird and will look too fadded..... here an Isabel Leghorn

I would swap some of them for Cemani hatching eggs... Edit.. did you see my responce for the CCL x Cemani Sexlinked Cross?... I thought for sure someone would be asking... but why such a cross would produce Sexlinks?..hehehe
