Do I want to learn about genetics? Yes. Is it very intimidating and scary? Yes.

Lol, I guess I misread, sorry.

All good!

Oh, the splash would also have the ML gene which causes the lacing on blues.

It's called chicken wire because the only animal that can't get through it is chickens!

I have no idea about colour genetics but sounds like people on here do ...
Can anyone work out if I breed a Red Pyle colour Silkie cockerel to white Silkie hen do I get Red Pyle colour offspring? I also have a black Silkie hen I could breed with, she has some gold neck feathers... What colour would offspring be?
Also, would his long tail be passed on to next generation?
Thanks!

My very scientific helpful comment: You pushed buttons. A lot of them.
