Peafowl Varieties Chart

[Garden Peas]

Guess Spanish class does come in handy! Was able to say all of that in Spanish and respond without using Google Translate (except for one word).

Excellent!

Now tell us what he/she said about corrections to MinxFox's chart, pretty please?

I'll try...

They said that "White Peacock" is a color mutation and not a pattern mutation. Word by word, "FALTA LA MUTACIÓN DE COLOR DENOMINADA COMO JADE" translates to "lacking the mutation of color is called/known as "Jade" ".

They then say the White spot/mark peacock is a mutation of color and not a model of the color mutation known as "Jade".

That's the best I can do. Sorry if I'm not fully correct. I've only had one year of actual Spanish class and the rest is on my own time.

I took two years of Spanish and probably only passed because I did Spanish posters for my teacher to hang in the classroom. He gave me extra credit grades for doing that, because it was obvious that I just couldn't comprehend another language. I felt like such an idiot in that class.

Yes I listed white under patterns because white masks the true color that the bird is. I looked at a peafowl breeder dumbfounded when he told me he could breed a white to an India Blue and get blackshoulders. Then I realized that the whites are white blackshouders, and the India Blues might be split to blackshoulder. Now really to most this doesn't matter because you are just breeding whites to whites or to pieds, you don't care what varieties you are mixing, etc. But, in this breeder's case it did matter because he seems to be running low on blackshoulders, so knowing what your white is hiding can be beneficial to re-stocking varieties or getting a new variety without having to buy it. I would think of the white as a white cloak on someone. You can't see the colors of the clothes underneath, but you know they are there.

I have included Hazel to the chart now, but I have yet to ad Jade. I am still a little confused about Jade, and I am confused about what they are trying to say about Jade. Jade is a new variety and it seems like it is only in Spalding peafowl right now? Is that correct? I might email someone about that unless if @Blue Creek Farm can tell me since I know he saw Jade in person and might know some helpful info on them.
Edited to add - I was contacted about selling prints of this chart, so if all goes well with this first order, if anyone is interested I can sell this as a print. I am not sure on pricing just yet or what method I will use for money, so this is just something I am working on. I might even be able to sell prints of individual varieties like if you just wanted a poster showing India Blues or something.

Sometimes white is also considered as a pattern. Pied is a pattern and white is actually a very very ... and very white Pied pattern.
Jade is not a spontaneous mutation, Jade is a mutation constructed with green peacock DNA basis .

A veces blanco también se considera como un patrón. "Pied" es un patrón y blanco es en realidad un blanco es un " Pied" muy muy ...y muy blanco .
Jade no es una mutación espontánea, Jade es una mutación construido con base de ADN de pavo real verde.

I thought Jade peafowl were are a type of Spalding but only can happen when there is more IB blood then Green. I have a book that list all the colors and patterns that were discovered before the book was published obviously, and they have Jade listed along with all of the pattern combinations except white. The author doesn't list all of the combinations for splits just if they are whole or not. I think that the author acknowledges that white is both color and pattern mutation because for peafowl to be white in color they must have the two white color alleles while the pattern they don't list because they don't mention splits other than a definition of what a split is and we all know that white can pass on and show up and we acknowledge it as a split to white.

@Birdrain92 if you have time, can you please post a picture of the cover of the book you mentioned? I'm not sure that there are very many books out there, and I'm curious about it... That would be great, thanks!
