I have a question about genetics

[Animal-lover339]

So i have a question its about a rooster i have who mated with a mutt hen and i was curious that he has naked neck genetics and i was wondering is it possible to get chicks with with a naked neck as well as what colors could i get?

Neither of those birds has any naked neck genetics, so none of the chicks will be naked necks. If the rooster had the naked neck gene, he would be a naked neck. It is a dominant gene. It cannot be carried without expressing.

Some will inherit barring from the rooster, so some will be barred. Black is very dominant so I would guess the chicks will be black, with some color leakage.

Awesome thats cool whata bout if my bantam spangeled .And the hen is white and cream how could the chicks be?

In regard to the first post, the chicks will be barred with gold leakage.

Pictures?

Since the chicks will only inherit one copy of the barred gene (unless the hen has barred ancestors), the barring won't be very distict. If the chicks are black, you wouldn't see any barring anyway.

Even if the hen had barred ancestors, she is not barred, meaning she herself does not carry barring, so she can't be passing any barring onto the offspring because she has no gene she could pass on.

Single barring still shows up well on birds, the bars just aren't as thick. A hen is never more than single barred, since the gene is sex linked, and yet barred rock hens, for example, are clearly barred.

The birds being black would have no effect on whether or not the barring can be seen. In fact, black is one of the easiest colors to see barring on, since white bars on black are very distinct.

I was going to say this.
