Easy chicken colour/genetic calculator!

[JoeyOsborne]

I'm not sure if people have found theres already and if so you have then sorry but i couldn't find one easy enough to use and if i found a easy one they were usally in a foreign language but eventually i found this: http://www.breedbook.org/?action=geneticscalculator&tab=CHICKEN

I wonder if the chinese have one.

Is there a calculator (in English) that shows what you get when you cross the F1 chicks? The calculators seem to only go as far as phenotype and genotype of the first cross, but they don't carry it into the next generation.

 

[Henk69]

Yes, they do.

In the crossing results you see links like "select for later ..." or "continue with..."

Good luck.

Henk, what color do I select for black breasted red? I don't see that on the list.

Henk:
Just want to say thanks. Your calculators are great. I do spend way too much time playing with them. I can't imagine anything more useful or simple to use.

The calculators start up with black breasted red or genetically: black patterned gold (groundcolored) duckwing
Black is the patterncolor
Gold is the groundcolor
Duckwing is the "pattern"

All like the red jungle fowl.

Oh, I didn't realize. Thanks. Trying to figure out what I'll get from Buff brahmas (buff columbian) with a BB-Red--ish rooster

Of course, I could just wait a few days til the chicks hatch, but where's the fun in that?
