She's my fav

I named her Prima, dirty face here from being a little piggie.

Here she is next to Dolce who I'm convinced is a cockerel because of his attitude!

I'm in the process of reading this entire thread and taking notes

I have a few cross questions if someone would humor me. I'm trying to figure out the poultry color calculator but it's slow going at them moment. Some of these may be a crap shoot as the results expected but I'm just curious what you all think. I have some new babies 4 of them are splash from Bobbi Porto I asked for possible lavenders or porcelains I'm not really sure who's who yet, but she did say she would try to pull me some lavender (possibly porcelain) splits and 2-3 of them are looking lavender in comparison to my lavender ameraucana bantams.

Please excuse any of my wonky wording.

What's the difference between lavender split that is splash and a splash that appears lavender (or porcelain)?

Lavender splash x white equals?

No way to tell what a white crossed to any other colour will give you! THere are many threads about recessive white.

Lavender splash x lavender equals?

This is lav/lav Bl/Bl paired with lav/lav bl+/bl+. Offspring will be lav/lav Bl/bl+: lavender and blue. Visually will look more like blue than like lavender, and will be difficult to impossible to distinguish between a blue who is also lavender and one who is not.

Lavender splash x splash equals?

This is lav/lav Bl/Bl crossed with Lav+/Lav+ Bl/Bl. Offspring will be Lav+/lav Bl/Bl: splash split to lavender. There will NOT be any physical appearance of lavender, but about half the next generation will inherit a copy of lavender.

Lavender splash x lavender splash equals?

lav/lav Bl/Bl + lav/lav Bl/Bl = lav/lav Bl/Bl

Porcelain splash x white equals? read up on recessive white and crossing it to other colours.

COMPLETELY unpredictable

Porcelain splash x lavender splash?

leaky lavender splash

This is the info she sent me if anyone is familiar with these names.

Sonoran Silkies Thank you for taking the time to answer those, I hear you're one of the color genetics guru around BYC. I hope to emulate you with your understanding one day

Since I posted I've been reading and reading and I'm understanding white a lot better now but I was unsure about the others. I appreciate your help

I have three of Bobbi's splash silkies, and they're great. But then I have almost all of her colors and love them all!

I'm looking for a lav roo if anyone has one and is in SC or can ship. PM me, please!

Thanks for the info. Can anyone else tell me if there Lav? page 279 pics. I was told that another splash turned out white from my eggs. Should i keep my adults together to keep this gene?

 

[Teresaann24]

what color would you breed lav too? Black? what would the outcome be? I was told they would all be black carrying the gene for lav then to breed those back to lav and then you would get lav?

A 50% chance of lavenders. You should get some nice blacks from the other half. These type of percentages are figured on hatching 100 chicks. Good luck to you!
