Breeding charts are a very useful tool, especially for people new to genetics. They've helped me a lot over the years. Now I'm thinking I could put my artistic abilities to use and create some visual breeding charts for different colors/genes.
I will likely prioritize colors and traits I personally work with and have experience with, but I'm open to suggestions on what you'd like to see made into a simple, understandable chart. Any specific genetics you've been unable to find existing charts for? Maybe I'll get to expand my genetics knowledge along the way, by making charts for traits I haven't worked with yet myself.

I plan for this to be a fun thing to do when I've got extra time on my hands, so I may not be dropping charts left and right, but when I do make some, I'll post them here.
 
V-comb effects would be nice. Polish and silkies are popular, even in mixed flocks. What the comb does when crossed with other comb types would be rather useful.
 
I definitely haven't seen many charts about comb types, I'll have to look into that. Thanks for the suggestion!

I made two visual guides as practice and to kind of see how they might look. One was a quick 'paint or splash' guide, since I often see those two colors get confused. It's not very in-depth though.
The other is a lavender breeding chart. I know there are lots of breeding charts for lavender already, but I wanted to start with something familiar, so that's what I went with.

I also absolutely used this as an excuse to draw some silkies, orpingtons and booted bantams :)
