I’ve noticed they are amazingly smart. Do you have a flarry eye, BBR cross?

Mine have some Flarry-eyed Gray in their background as that is the likely source of the gray and toppy alleles one of my lines has in it. Otherwise, they have very little in them. Flarry-eyed grays are one of many strains that come gray at least part of time. The percentage of strains with toppy is lower. The alternative gray toppy here is refereed to as the Kansas City Toppy that may or may not be related to Flary-eyed Grays. I am not up on the history and their is likely an accuracy issue when it comes to composition of actual bloodlines.

I would try to not get overly hung up on strains at this time. It can be a selling point that is purposely inaccurate as a method to secure a sale.

Is "toppy" caused by the same gene as "crest"? I see it looks like the little crest of Cream Legbar, not the giant puffy one of a Polish.

And when you say "gray," do you mean what the genetics folks call "silver"?

Oh okay, I’m gonna keep posting updates on them and thank you again for the help, you have helped me so much.

Toppy in games not same as in silkies where they is a change in the skull itself. I think it is the same as crest of Cream Legbar and Icelandics. Polish is yet something again.

gray = silver

What is your brooder setup like? Can you make so little platforms can be installed they can fly to for rewards?

I can try, they are in a plastic bin as their brooder because I want to keep them inside.
Is there a way I can make it outside the brooder?

I have yet to come across a game flarry eyed grey or whatever they're called. I think they are kinda like a dom. More of a novelty than a serious contender

Yes.

I doubt OP's parent is keen on putting birds into any competition.

 

[JadeFarms]

Well I would not ever do any fighting with any animal if that’s the type of competition you mean. If I really wanted to I could show them if they are show birds at all.
