Can someone please help me understand how the Isabel coloring comes into the whole color genetics thing..
I ordered some Lavender Brahma hatching eggs from a breeder and some of the chicks grew up to have a mix of pale gold and lavender coloring (I believe this is called Isabel Lavender but please correct me if I am wrong!). I would like to continue this coloring as I prefer it to the straight lavender but I am confused as to how this should be accomplished. If I breed this hen to a Lavender rooster can I expect any of the offspring to be the same color as her?
I have included a pic of the hen so you can see the coloring I am talking about....she is a bit ratty looking as she is molting. Thanks for your help!
