Trying something new

[Stevan]

I've bred a golden welsummer roo to white leghorns, one of the offspring looks just like a welsummer hen but white, and has a smaller comb. The other also looks like a welsummer, aswell as having the colours of a golden welsummer hen, but a smaller comb too. Their brother is basically a big white welsummer with brown saddle feathers.

Would it be better to breed them to the father or their brother? The white pullet lays white eggs and the dark one lays brown eggs. I have other welsummers aswell but I want to try and get white ones by trying new things, just for me not intending to show them or anything. Thought it would be a cool project to try and get white ones to look similar to the welsummers

Making White Welsummers? They could do Red Pyle, which is just a Dominant white Duckwing.

The white ones feet are orange, it's just the lighting, and the darker one has black and orange feet. The roo with them is the father. The white roo is really huge, and now that I look at him, he doesn't really resemble a wellie.
