The Moonshiner's Leghorns

Duckwing coloring and partridge coloring are different physically and genetically. Duckwing is wild type. Partridge is a double laced type feather. https://www.google.com/search?q=par...=635&safe=active&ssui=on#imgrc=PE8RVqIFmGMWfM: partidge

The difference is one gene, the E gene.
e+ is duckwing
e^b is partridge.

I looked it up (because I know I have read about partridge sexlinked Welsummers somewhere) and according to other sites on the internet, it seems to depend on European/American regional differences. So in the US, you would be right.

Makes sense. I've heard of those too. I just realised I was accidently educating my educator of e genes on e genes. (Does that even make any sense?)

I love the swimming one.

It was not by choice, she fell in trying to run around the pool too fast. Cracked me up. I let her float for a while.

Not at this time.
I'm not NPIP or anything.
Was thinking about it in the future.

Wow, you've really come up with some interesting colors. I'm a big fan of Leghorns, too. Your buffs and silvers look especially good.
