Would anyone care to guess genetics with me on my backyard flock?

[YukitaCynder]

I’ve got lots of pictures to share about my flock and what genetics might be hidden within. I can’t get a solid finger on many of the hen genetics and I’m hoping to learn from people who know more than me. It may be hard to get a comprehensible family tree in chat form but I’ll do my best. I’ve got several generations to try and help determine what’s at play but I understand if some things are just beyond discovery with my limited information. All of my chickens are bantam of OEGB or Serama (and mostly a mix) and one of my hens is the matriarch of the flock. I’ll point her out in pictures to come. I’m mostly interested in feather color genetics but if anyone wants to share about the genetics of other aspects of the chickens like leg color or body shape that’s always appreciated to. I’ll do the family tree with pictures in the next message.

This is Sweet Pea. She’s the matriarch of the flock. She’s the mother of Bacon and Ranch.

This is the father of Bacon and Ranch. Let’s call him Serama Rooster 1.

This is Bacon.

This is Ranch.

Now between Sweet Pea, Bacon, Ranch and this new Serama rooster Mayo…

I’ve created all of these new amazing offspring!
(1st clutch mix of all hens chicks)

(2nd clutch (NONE of these are Bacons)

(3rd clutch probably a mix of all hens but possibly not Ranch’s)
