Lol I’d be surprised if FL didn’t have more restrictions or laws knowing itYou can sell shipped eggs without NPIP as long as the buyer knows. Does FL not allow it? I’d be surprised if FL was more restrictive than CA on that

No.I've got a question for ya'll...does a wheaten (roo) over lavender hen make isabel?
Ok so what makes Isabel? Or would I just have to keep crossing down the lineNo.
It makes phenotypically black ameraucanas, probably with leakage, that carry the wheaten base and lavender gene. Wheaten is recessive to black, and lavender is recessive to non-lavender, so you should never get an Isabel out of that cross. Breed the f1s together and you should get a very small amount of Isabels though.. Less than 10% would be Isabel.
Yes, you would need to keep crossing down the line. But you also have to consider the genetic quality of the line and back cross to a wheaten unrelated every now and then.Ok so what makes Isabel? Or would I just have to keep crossing down the line
basically what @kurby22 said. Isabel is wheaten with the lavender gene, so you need to keep breeding until you get wheaten based birds who present the lavender gene. Breeding the f1 birds together, who are phenotypically black, and keeping every wheaten and Isabel chick that hatches is what I’d do. Some of the wheatens that hatch will carry the lavender gene, so breeding them together or to an Isabel you may hatch will increase the odds of an Isabel hatching. If you go this route, and don’t want to wait until adulthood to test breed every wheaten bird to see if they carry the lavender gene, IQ bird testing offers tests to determine whether a bird is a carrier of the lavender gene.Ok so what makes Isabel?

Thank you!Yes, you would need to keep crossing down the line. But you also have to consider the genetic quality of the line and back cross to a wheaten unrelated every now and then.
