Tolbunt English Orpington project

[Amalia]

Cool looking birds.
What is the color/pattern genetics of a tolbunt?

They both, Tolbunt and Porcelain split from the same Black, the Black came from Jubilee roosters and Lavender hens.

?
So you bred jubilee roosters to lavender hens.
That produced the birds pictured?
They were black split for mottled and lavender.
Then what? Bred the black offspring to each other?

Actually, black split to many colors, but we selected chicks for Tolbunt and Porcelain projects.

Is there no set genetics for them?
Just mix colors and pick whichever chicks have the look you're wanting?

 

[Amalia]

Yes, it"s have set. Bur cross Jubilee X Lavender have many variants and you can take what you need.

That's the part I was trying to get to.
You say you take what you need.
I was curious what you need. What genes made up the tolbunt pattern.

but they not will total the same like pic

 

[The Moonshiner]

So you took the jubilee pattern and got rid of the columbian gene.
Getting rid of it extended the black back to the chest etc.
Then added the mottled genes.
What about the mahogany genes? Since you say gold I'm assuming your breeding it out too?
Your porcelain are the same with lavender added.

That sounds interesting. I have the jubilee roo but no jubilee hens. I have two gold laced hens that I love.

I also have lavender hen, columbian hen, black split to choc hen, all orps. Then I have two lavender Roos,choc roo , black split to choc, columbian roo. And two blue Roos. What colors could I get? The porcelain is very pretty
