Like many traits, it also depends on the rooster, I would say not to expect larger spurs on her female offspringThanks for the reply. To what degree might I expect this trait to be found in her female offspring?

Super limited experience, but the one daughter I have from a spurred hen doesn't have spurs, so it's at least not going to be every single oneThanks for the reply. To what degree might I expect this trait to be found in her female offspring? All? or just some? She's actually an awesome momma and very predator savvy. She's outlasted many others that have succumbed to various predators. A darwin chicken of sorts. I'm not breeding her to any current SOP. I can see why folks breeding to pretty much any current SOP would cull for / lean away from this trait.

I have a weird question. It's about Barnevelders. They are double laced, like dark Cornish. There is the gold double laced, the silver double laced, and the blue/gold double laced, where the black background color is blue instead of black. My question: is it possible to produce blue/silver double laced Barnevelders? I've never seen such a thing and I think it would be a cool color pattern, if it is possible. If it's not, why?
Where can I order some?

It's really not that hard to do, get a Silver Barnevelder male and cross it with a Blue/Splash gold based Barnevelder hen and you got yourself Silver Based hens that are Blue(50% of them if you use a Blue gold based hen)
As with many of my threads.. They are made for future generations with Inquiring MindsLove your new profile picture!
Yes, most definitely.My question is egg color can you breed a maran colored egg into another breed? Like say wyandottes
