Crossing Sebrights?

[The Moonshiner]

I assume it would have Dominant White and Silver, and would look like a white bird. Calling it "White Laced Silver" makes sense if you need to keep track of what genes it's got, because for breeding purposes it would be quite different than many other white chickens.

And the Kippenjungle calculator does call it "White Patterned Silver Laced," if I make a laced bird with Silver and Dominant White.

It was just very odd that that would be an answer to the crosses mentioned. A WTH moment.
Then yes just trying to understand what it would be if there was such a pattern I came to the same conclusion on looks as well as what could be used to produce it.
The first cross would maybe have a very few very small black specks.

I had crossed a white leghorn with dominanat white with a gold sebright and it looked like a smaller leghorn all white orange legs, and orange beak. Kinda of disappointing but I’ll wait to see the chicks grow up.

I think that's pretty common for white leghorn crosses. They have a combination of various genes that make white, and many of them are dominant. So it turns lacing (a combination of genes from the Sebright) to solid black (Extended Black), and then the black to white (Dominant White), and for good measure turns gold to white (Silver), and maybe adds some white barring for good measure... and you get white chicks. But if you cross that white one back to a Gold Sebright, you might get some interesting colors and combinations showing up when some of the chicks do not inherit the whole set of dominant genes.

Would the chicks still have the dominant white gene or have a recessive white gene

I do not know whether White Leghorns have recessive white too, or just Dominant White.

(Dominant White is on one of the chromosomes, and changes black into white. Recessive White is on a different chromosome, and changes all colors to white. So a chicken can easily have one, the other, both, or neither.)

If your white chicken has one White Leghorn Parent and one Gold Sebright parent (black laced gold), and then you cross back to a Gold Sebright, you would expect Dominant White in about half the chicks, and not in the other half of them.

So the ones with no Dominant White might be Black Laced Gold, Black Laced Silver, solid black, and maybe some with blue or barring or whatever else the Leghorn was carrying that the white was hiding.

The same colors with Dominant White would be White Laced Gold, White Laced Silver (=white), and solid white (instead of solid black). White would also hide blue, and of course white barring on a white bird is not very visible either!

2 chicks have a few black dots on them so im not sure

but most of the are just plain white thanks!
