Hi all,
I’m new to breeding and understanding genetics and have so many questions. To start, I’m wondering how the blue/green egg genes translate and what happens when you breed a Silverudds Isbar with blue egg layers (cc Legbar) or olive layers (marans/ameraucana mix)? Does the green genetics from isbar dilute egg colour or make it more vibrant??
For example, I’m breeding Legbar with Isbar. I’ve read this makes super blue egg layer, is that true? Or is it just another light blue/green egg?
And what will his green do with my olive eggs?
Thanks in advance. And probably more questions to come haha
(pics of Isbar roo and some eggs I’ve hatched...Legbar, ameraucana, BCM, Olive Eggers...)
