Muscovy Genetics

[BirdBrain]

Is there a muscovy genetics primer some where? I am trying to figure out what my crew will end up with. I have a blue drake and what I was pretty sure was a chocolate drake, but he continued to get darker and darker. He is almost deep purple black. He doesn't fit his name much any more...Cocoa. The 3 hens are blue, buff? and one that I can't tell if she is more buff or brown pied. Do I sound confused? I am.

I am assuming that if I breed the two blues I'll end up with the typical blue genetics percentages. The other drake is low man on the totem pole so I don't know what his chances are of siring anything. He is not supposed to be black as I ordered an assortment that did not include black. He was completely brown as a duckling. I guess I am just wondering what I could end up with for colors. Anyone want to take a stab at this?

Can you post a pic of the drake in ? Blue X Blue = 25% Black, 50% Blue and 25% Silver(2 copies of the blue gene)

Scroll down until you see the blue Muscovy duck (calculator) then click on link & calculate. Will have more time later. Photos may help?

Thanks. I will try to get pictures tomorrow. It is already dark here and the sun doesn't come up until mid morning. I'll see what I can do.
