The "Ask Anything" to Nicalandia Thread

Her foot pads are white. Just a green tinge on gray/slate shanks.

I also have a Red JungleFowl chick with green tinge on shanks, but white skin. Giving this one to a friend.

They aren't F1s, they multi generational.

I thought they were F1s. Multi generational would explain the yellow skin.

What could be causing that greenish tint on an otherwise white skin?

It's always a mystery with @MysteryChicken

How do you breed for a lavender laced Sebright. I know I can’t cross them to other breeds but is it just random? I know some people have been making them more often.

Her foot pads are white, just checked them.

I have a Red JungleFowl chick that is the same way, green tinge, but white foot pads. Giving the oddball to a friend.

Does the Mosaic being the father change how long the dark skin took to show?

I have never heard of that breed. But Ayam Cemani are known to be poor sires for Id vs id+ skin color(Females with Dark skin, males with clear skin) due to additional genes that overide or have a inhibitor effect of sex linked Id(Sex linked Dermal Inhibitor)

They were developed using silkies a few years ago. Here's one of the male's I had in the pen. Out of the 8 chicks they sired, (5 males, 3 females) the only one that wasn't the correct skin color was the NN mix up one

Curious what the chicks could look like if these two are crossed, silver laced rooster and Easter egger hen.

That EE hen has a very interesting pattern, looks very similar to Autosomal Barred, like a Campine hens.

She is at least eb/eb, and pattern gene.

Silver laced are eb/eb, Pg/Pg, Ml/Ml and Co/Co. The chicks will look almost completely Silver Laced.
