I have been reffering to that as a Golden Birchen, I get them using Brown Red to improve the Birchen, You can also get very similar results from a Birchen based Black carrying Red when bred to Birchen,

Chelsy,it appears you have a nice start on female line White OE and male line Golden Duckwing.

thank you for feedback! I'm very new to breeding and Iv done to a of research but still feel kind of clueless. I guess 7 days of cramming info was not a good approach. I'm grateful for any and all info you could throw my way. Thank you

Ok because the bbred rooster is his father and his mother is the black hen with him

Then its likely the black hen is carry's silver for hackle and saddle just covered up with black. Breed him back to her and get you a nice line of Birchen going.
