Ken, below is the European written standard description for the Double Laced Cocopop Silver Duckwings hen that I am using as a guideline for my cocopop project. If you read it closely then go look at your bird that you think look just like Jerry's bird and tell me if there are any differences. To breed for different shade of cocopop like what you are doing is easy but to breed em according to a written standard description is not an easy task as you thought Bro. This is what separate a real breeder from a multiplier of the color variety.

Btw, your hen is a Pg pattern and Jerry's is a Pg+Ml+Co, you need to dig deeper in your research then just relying on the phenotype. Jerry's famous words "your time, your dime and your bird". Good luck.

Hen: head and hackle wheaten coloured with a silverish lacing and in lower hackle a matt brown shaft stripe. Primaries wheaten coloured with matt brown inner vane. Back, wing coverts, saddle and tail coverts wheaten coloured with a light feather edge. The inner part of these feathers have more or less distinct grey brown peppering. Breast, abdomen and lower thighs light wheaten coloured with a pale feather edge and pale feather quill. Tail grey brown, the upper main tail feathers in colour matching the tail coverts. Down: greyish.
Legs: yellow.
Severe faults: very patchy ground colour, missing pale lacing.

i thought you were going to breed wheaton based cocopops...? that way it's easier to keep the double lacing on the chest...
 
Congrats Cathy. Love the chocolate one but that last one

I am going to gumbii, that is what the standard call for. I need to do more test mate in my flock before I buy anything for this project.
 
HI everyone,
When things get testy in here...it makes my stomach hurt..........

I am new and really depending on this thread to learn....
I am going to post pics a little later and hope some of you will give me feedback on my birds.................
It is O.K. to be honest.being kind will not help me learn.
My roo is Crele and I love the color.
I would like to concentrate on this but do not have enough knowledge about genetics.
Maybe this color is just common to the breed..........
I f there is a book that could be recommended I would appreciate the advise..............
I have picked up that you breed for type first, color second.

I am sooooooo thrilled with these little guys...........and my DH also.
He has built them an outside cage and I catch him talking to them.
I have some lovely breeding stock of other breeds but nothing compares to the personality
of the Seramas...............and I think they are very smart...

In a few short days they had me trained to get them treats..................

I have 7 adults and 17 chicks ranging 1 week to 1 month.
Have had 100% hatch so far and have not lost a chick (yet)
Alot of credit goes to this thread and learning about thier care.

Hope everyone has a peaceful day.....and FUN..
Toni

Very cool, this is a great pplace to learn about the serama, lots of people with many different aspects of serama knowledge and breeding ethics, ideas, views, take what you need from what you see and move forward.. I like you love my birds and have a hard time when people put them down or say bad things, I know what i have they get a quick glimps on the internet!! This is a new breed and it is still very bumpy on the color aspect!! As for your hatch rate and chick survival, WOW way to go, my first weramas almost made me QUIT, My will was renewed and i am going again and doing well. Great job, enjoy learn it is a small world out there in this serama world!!
 
Thank you. I was hoping he would pose. He def has type. And fertile.

Its day 19 and I don't see ANYTHING moving in my incubator.... All I need is a little rocking, or a peep or something!!!

I want to gently lift up an egg and tap on it "Anybody in there?"

But the flashing neon "DO NOT TOUCH" sign that pops in my mind from my rational self, reminds me no touchies, no peekies... Patience, patience, patience.

I know, I still have two days, I just figured the little ones might be earlier than the big ones. My incubator has been spot on, with no catastrophes, and very little fluctuation. I have had two thermometers, and 1 hygrometer in there. I've done the best I can, right? Its not up to me anymore.
