If I breed a lavender roo over blue hen what color would the chicks be? Then what color chicks if I bred a lavender roo to a blue laced or a black laced hen? As I have lavender orp roos I wanna breed to a blue wyandotte hen and a blr hen and a black laced hen as im trying to create my own lavender wyandottes not for show or sell just for me
Lavender over blue will give blue and black offspring, and all will carry a copy of lavender. Breed the lavender sire with the black offspring and 50% will be lavender and 50% will be black carrying lavender. Once you have the color then you will have to start selecting for Wyandotte traits (yellow skin/legs, rose comb, type).
If you breed lavender to blrw or glw then be aware that the lavender gene also dilutes red.
For the black laced I meant black laced red not silver laced Someone of fb said I would get lavender from a lav over blue
So if I bred a lav over blue and got black it would be split? If I crossed it back to a lav Would i get lav?
