No, you didn't confuse me. I get dominant and recessive, it was the phenotype and genotype that I didn't understand.

So with the BLB, I know I am way behind on this, what are you using to make them if you are getting the homozygous and heterozygous chicks? And, would the homozygous cream colored ones have been BL with no leakage? (I guess that is speculation at this point, though)

I believe Dan has both golden laced and buff laced in this particular pen I recieved my eggs from. Luckily enough, the two chicks I hatched were both homozygous for dominant white. I really need to ask him what the heterozygotes look like as adults, but I figure I'll know soon enough when I cross them with the Golden laced Cochins. If you look on the Greenfire site they have a pretty picture of the three laced varieties of Brahmas in one pic. I believe Big M is working on Blue laced Reds also.

Do the polish people cross the gold and buff laced?

These were the two that hatched

I was told not to cross BL with anything because you would end up with weird colors. I guess it wouldn't hurt to try sometime and see what we end up with.

I am excited about BigM's BLRB's! They are going to be gorgeous.

The chicks are very cute, Dak. You can see the lacing already on the one on the left. How old are they?

I so want to! But, since we have to come home, guess it won't happen this time.

4 months old now. They have spent two nights now "outside", and are doing well. The pullet is starting to pinken up a bit. She will eventually go in with my GLC cockerel.

OK, so then what do you expect to get when crossing the BLB to the GLC?

I have thought about it! But, then I would be stuck in Jersey and knowing him, he would leave me there!!!!!

They will be heterozygous for dominant white. I will have to ask Dan what these birds will look like phenotypically. All the lacing genes will still be intact, so that should be ok. It is just a question of how dominant Dominant White is in a single dose.
