Golden Lakenvelder roo X Silver true rumpless Araucana

Quote:I can tell you that the mother is not the Silver araucana, this chicks look like a eb/eWh cross.. meaning the roo mated with a Wheaten based pullet... do you have wheaten/buff araucana? you see eb(lakenvelder) mated to e+(silver araucana) will produce e+/eb chicks that will look chipmunked stripped and this chicks are not, but eb/eWh chicks do look like that

 

I am not familiar with what genes go into either of these breeds, so I could be off. Usually I will override the Chicken Calculator if I know what genes are going into it, but it looks as though they should be sex-linked, those two in the pictures I would assume to be male, but some would be rumpless and others would not 50% chance. Females would be golden and rumpless would be 50% also.

 

Don't mind me LOL, Marvin showed up and always has better answers.

 

Quote:as I said this cross(yellow chiks with some stripping on head) look like eWh/eb cross chicks a similar cross that would produce sexlinks(yellow males and orange/chestnutt females) is to use a RIR and Silver Wyandotte where the RIR carry gold and eWh and Silver Wyandotte carry eb and Silver.. here the pics and source of such cross https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/375015/sexlink-thread-pictures-and-discussion/640#post_6520730

 

Quote:well she is Silver alright and my actually look silver duckwing ameraucana but infact maybe a silver x whetean ameraucana cross, which I would not blame the selling it as silver as this cross(wheaten x Wildtype) will produce wildtype looking chicks.... and just when you do the outcross is when you find out she is heterozygous for wheaten.. Edit. sorry I meant Araucana

 

Quote:you cant sex them by the stripes... they seem to be yellow, so they seem to be the same sex
