List Recessive/Dominant

[Obsessive]

Can anyone give a list of Recessive/Dominant traits? So far I haven't seen any posts or books on this in any great detail

I'm 15 and I think I'll be into chickens for the rest of my life :

I'm slightly, well...Obsesssed

I know 5 toes and dark skin is dominant (I think anyways). Barring is dominant as well as sex-linked.

Obsessive

If you're slightly (or majorly!) obsessive about chickens, you're in the right place!

Hi, Obsessive! Welcome to BYC!

I don't have an answer for you, but I'd love to have the same list.

I just wanted to say that I have a bunch of the breeds that are on your list (Ameraucanas, EEs, welsummers, wyandottes, silkies, mille fleur d'uccle, polish, etc.). I love having an eclectic mix! There are an embarrassing number of photos of them all on my blog. Check it out!

I think I saw this list in some reading I was doing. I'll try to find it.
