Are the whites dominant or recessive? If they're recessive, then none of those will make partridges. If they're dominant, breed then to a black. I got a silver partridge that way because I had a dominant white that happened to have the right genes

umm dominant to black breeds paint. Recessive white can have partridge hiding which results in partridge chicks. I believe that you have a recessive white if you got the silver partridge because that's what I get from mine.

Oh, my bad. I thought if it was recessive, it only had those recessive genes, period, where dominant can hide genes

Nope! Recessive can hide genes but dominant can't it's pure white.

Okay, then mine must have been recessive. I just know that I definately didn't get a paint and I bought them as white
