This hen is with them too, and she's very silvery. Would she make daughters that look like her, or would they look different because dad isn't silver too?

 

[MysteryChicken]

I can't say.

Probably gonna breed her to JungleFowl, to see what happens.

Her daughters will be gold based because they can only get the gold or silver from their sire(sire is gold s+/s+)

Okay, so daughters look like dad and sons will look like a mix, just like other sexlinkings?

Sons will likely look golden but hatch silver of course.

Okay, thanks. And then if I kept a son and bred him back to her, some of those chicks would get the silver gene and look like mama?

I love her color and I'd like to not lose it down the line if possible

50% of those will be like her

I’m not entirely sure she’s silver. I could be wrong, but her hackles look goldish to me, like this hen (not my pic):

That can be the case, my working monitor is not helping with many colors

No, she's definitely silvery. No gold on her that I can see. My phone just tries to add yellow tines to a lot of the images
