That seems like Khaki. But while its not a gold Diluter, its not a gold enhacer. Other factors play a role on that

Okay. Any thoughts as to where my redhead popped up from? I don't think any of my other pheonixes* have ever been actually red before or after him, all various shades of gold

We have a variety of showgirl colors. Our favorite is a blue partridge. What will produce more blue partridge showgirls? How would I go about producing a silver partridge showgirl?

Breed Blue partridge to Blue partridge, or just breed to blue partridge to a partridge.

for the silver partridge, breed a silver male to any of your female partridge hens.
Take any silver female offspring, & breed back to the father. This way you wouldn't have to breed out the gold from the Gold/Silver split males that will be produced.

Paint bred to Blue will produce. 50% Paint(50% of those will be Paint with blue spots), 50% Blue/Black.

So if these males are khaki, that means both parents carried dun, right?

Wildtype Hens have very little black on them(on the tail) and Dun can appear as very dark chocolate. The White male can hide Dun under heterozygous dominant white
