Ima keep him real pretty deep bold orange and red and irridescent orange tail just won't be bred. He may end up being crossed down the road tho!

That my friend is the offspring of this

and this

guess you'd call it a throwback cause it came from a ruble pair so I guess someone infused some hulsey somewhere down the line. And the only one of about 60ish chicks I personally hatched.

That hen side looks somewhat like some of mine that also have occasional brothers, uncles, and sons like your "pumpkinish" stag. Some folks have been trying to say some of mine are wheaton, possibly recessive wheaton but I am not ready to smoke their dope yet. When you put my birds and possibly your hen next to a proper wheaton they are easy to tell apart. Wheatons look outright reddish to my eyes while mine and possibly yours look more brownish. They also got lots of pattern and don't have the pumpkin color in flight feathers at all..

Below is what a pullet that had a bad date with raccoon looks like.

Before raccoon date.

Picture below shows chicks of same.

heres her or her sister. They are definately red burnt orange color but my phone dosent take the best pics.

 

[centrarchid]

You are making me think.

 

[sdm111]

Seems like yours has more black and brown penciling than mine. Chicks look the same and your pullet pic before coon show a brighter hackle feather than mine had. Mine almost looked wild type pullet then molted to the current color

Another sister to the mother of orange stag

I don't think genetic basis is the same between mine and yours. Yours seems to change the black color why mine seems to change the distribution of the black color. Neither look wheaton at level of down coloration. I can tell who is a carrier because on male side the black on breast is delayed until they are almost grown and many feathers have little half moons on outside edge. On hens you can see bars on secondaries.

Yep well I guess sorry I'm not too keen on genetics not that smart. I do know if I put a cock and hen in a pen they make babies lol
