RIW carry a dominant white. There is a chance, but unsure, that cross chicks may hatch out yellow with some black dots or a visible white dot on the head.Smart choice cy...
Got a question for you genetics guru's. I want to increase my breeding female RIWs. There is a low risk that one or more of them could have been mated with a Barred Holland. The BH is a single comb barred bird and the RIW is pure white with a rose comb. I really don't want to wait 30 days to start setting. If such a mating occurred will I be able to identify the crosses and what would I look for? I'm planning on hatching both BH and RIW eggs together.
When they feather in though, you should be able to tell because some barring will leak through.
