Genetics Question of brahma!!

[nicalandia]

So you mean to say is that if I cross my blue salmon with isabel then it can produce this type of hen ? Plz guide

No, the blue in salmon is different from the Isabel bluish color, different genes, but if you breed Blue Salmon with Blue Salmon you will get 25% chicks that will be Splash Salmon

This chick is too young to(you can still see the Wheaten chick down) but the feathers are too dark to be of a pullet, I would say a cockerel

This one is a Pullet of course:

And Cockerel

Thankyou but still i’m looking like what should i breed my salmon or anything else to get that hen colour. What’s your final call ? Because not all splash are like the above some are towards the lighter tone and i need exact this thing.

I am not really one to comment on breeding to the SOP, from my point of view the pullet is a Salmon/Wheaten bird, and I was hoping to confirm that for you, but as to breed for a specific look within the Salmon phenotype is something I would rather not comment on it

Let the chicks grow and see how they look and take it from there
