Creating Experimental Black Crele Chickens (Different Genetics, new variety)

Forgot the picture, was busy today.

I'm still curious about this....

What do you believe the genetic make up of that chick is?

Single comb is recessive so takes two copies to show so bred to a rose comb all would be rose but carry a gene for single.
But the rose comb could also be carrying a gene for single if that were the case it would be about 50/50 single and rose split to single.
IDK about 3rd generation because IDK what was meant with the first two generations.
Also don't know about producing all splash. There would be no reason it would unless it was splash laced bred to splash laced. It works just like any other BBS breeding.
Could of just been luck of the draw. Especially if only a few were hatched.

I've noticed lately that a concerning sum of people seem to think that Blue Laced Red Wyandotte is a breed, not a variety. As in, a whole lot.
I've seen more ads than I can count advertising 'many colors of blue laced red Wyandottes' showing pictures of black laced red, blue laced red, splash laced red and golden laced. And somehow, the public seems to think Silver Laced Wyandottes are a different breed simply called Silver Lace.
There's even someone here referring to their black laced red Wyandottes as black blue laced red Wyandottes.

So these other '2 generations' are probably splash laced Wyandottes and the seller may be confusing a breed with a variety.

Can't get the pictures today, it's storming outside.

How about the color/pattern genetics of that chick?
Any information about that yet?
How about the scientist? Is he willing to help you with that if you don't know?

Not everyone is as skilled in genetics as others. Heck, the OP might not know what the color patterns/bases are. She might only know what breeds go into the certain color she was looking for. So please take that in consideration.

I am just asking you about the genetics of the birds you're using?

OP has already stated she is working with a scientist that knows chicken genetics and has discussed genetics with him and he agreed with everything she discussed.
She has also stated that genetics as known now is probably outdated and wrong and this experiment may rewrite some of that outdated ideas.
Seems odd with the subject of this thread and her interest in genetics that she would not want to talk of genetics.

Really?

The different genetics portion refers to the breeds I'm using that don't consist of Black Breasted Red genes, but rather make use of the wheaten genes from Buff Orpingtons as a the main component in coloration in the crele pattern with Barred Rocks making the barred pattern. I've done reading, before my project. It is possible with what I'm doing. Make sense?
