DWD I dont know if they carry gold gene or not....didnt know enough to ask when ordered. They are his show quality though....so we will see. I will need some people to volunteer to hatch out my first couple of hatches to test fertility, as I don't have incubators anymore.. so I guess I will have to wait and see. I guess we could call and ask. I talked to Millie the other day and she is a gem.. just a very lovely lady.
