Quote:
All pigeons have two basic pattern genes.
In order of dominance, T-pattern (or velvet) is most dominate, then check, bar, and barless.
In this case, both parents are bars. I highly doubt they are split for barless, so all babies will be barred.
If the cock bird is a bar, and the hen is a check, you could get two different scenarios of outcomes.
If she is a pure check, having two doses of it, then all babies would be checked.
If she was split for bar, then half the offspring would be checks and half would be bar, regardless of sex.
