The first is a splash laced red, so all of his offspring with a gold laced would be blue. 50% of the second rooster’s offspring would be blue, and the other 50% would be black.
In terms of lacing and mahogany, they both look equally good.

Righteous, so in theory, the closest I'd get to a BLRO, would be with rooster numero uno?
I might have to bake this lady some brownies or something, haha, maybe she'll borrow him to me.....

Yes, using the splash laced red would be faster since you’d have more blue chicks to choose from.

They're actually my friend's roosters! But I'm hoping she will let me borrow them

I had to come back to this thread to let you all know that I've been playing on the chicken calculator for a couple hours now, and I've had a major breakthrough and think I've finally learned how to use it!
