Is there any future in dilute or dilute edged, need to know if I must scale down on them.
Thanks Anthony

I agree on that cause I have Violet/Dilutes....Struggle to sell it tough....but keeping my Violet Dilute and Violet Dilute dom.edged

Hi John,
Is the blue bird on the wire from the same parents?
Do you have a pic of it to show wings? looks like an edged blue hen if not mistaken.
in which case you could be having edged turq pieds
what were the parents?
Cheers

Is Dilute a sexed linked incomplete dominant mutation or (spangle combination of all so called dominant pieds)

to breed Dilute you need both parents to carry it at least in splits.
edged is more likely as they are sex linked dominant, therefore you only need one edged.
if edged hen parent = all males from her will be edged visual
if edged male parent= half of all hens n males will be edged
A few breeders want to put edged to pieds, it'd be great if you already had it.

John,
Nice,
Edged buttercup IMO
I have buttercups and they have dark flight feathers, I have edged and their flight feathers are same as body color.
when you take pics next take some with flash or in the sun ;)
add violet turquoise to the buttercup and it should be a piedish looking buttercup.
stunning bird it'll be
I have a green pied/b-cup young. curious how pied b-cups will look like.
Reference for b-cups:
http://psittacula-world.com/EN/Mutation ... Fallow.htm
John, if you're planning to let him go, pretty sure there are a few breeders interested in acquiring him.

I have seen the Pied Buttercup and know about someone who has and that is Mature already....breeding with them this year. Hopefully I can get Chicks from him. And you have Dominand pieds not Dom.edged pieds....Go take a lOok at the SL edged section to learn more About edged....there's been a lot of talking

Thank you Anthony.
FYI
Edged are: Sex-Linked Dominant Mutation
I am always learning and this is the latest data available on Edged.

no worries and if there's s-thing new , i do want to know, so anyone please share.
On Edged and Cinnamon crossovers , i think we should organise a few pairs to test crossover rate as Johan suggested and
i think Tienie is already organising s-thing with Madas.

John, dilute is an autosomal recessive mutation. Your observations are correct about dilute reminding of dom. pieds, especially if we look at the feather barbs which are also dark. The DF dom. pied and dilute will be two very similar looking birds.

Wrong assumption. Both cinnamon and Edged are sex-linked mutations. So if your female is really a cinnamon edged crossed over bird then they will be inherited as package from the mother. A re-crossover for both mutations can't occur in female birds. So the males are Cinnamon Edged(sf).

Hi Madas;
I have read you mentioning quite a few times about the term "re-crossover" . Can you please elaborate in more detail abt its meaning , how re-crossover occurs and how it is being related to the sex of the bird (just like in above case you mentioned it is not possible in females). Thanks

Madas can you please explain LOL. what I understand is I can only breed Cinnamon edged in males then, and the females would be either cinnamon or it will be edged? and the female is breed from a dom.edged cinnamon male

For a successful CrossOver your need a pair of two equal chromosomes. For sex-linked mutations this is true for males because they have two Z-chromosomes which can carry informations responsible for make up of the resulting phenotype. Females only carry one Z-chromosome. So Crossing Over for sex-linked mutations can only occur in males.

No. You can breed cinnamon-SL Edged females. These females inherit the cinnamon and SL Edged gen from the father (sex-linked). So if both mutations should be visual expressed in a females phenotype both mutations must be placed on one Z-chromosome of the father which is then passed on to the female (and male) offspring. But this is only possible after a crossover or for a already crossed over Z-chromosome. Re-Crossover means that both coupled mutations on this Z-chromosome become splitted again. But again this is only possible in males because they have two Z-chromosomes.
Possible combinations of cinnamon and SL Edged:
0,1 cinnamon
0,1 SL Edged
0,1 cinnamon-SL Edged
1,0 split cinnamon (heterozygous)
1,0 SL Edged(sf) (heterozygous)
1,0 cinnamon (homozygous)
1,0 SL Edged(df) (homozygous)
1,0 SL Edged(sf) split cinnamon (not crossed over; heterozygous)
1,0 SL Edged(sf) split cinnamon (crossed over; heterozygous; visual the same as the one before)
1,0 SL Edged(df) split cinnamon (homozygous SL Edged; heterozygous cinnamon; one Z-Chromosome is carrying both mutations, so the crossed over variant)
1,0 cinnamon SL Edged(sf) (homozygous cinnamon; heterozygous SL Edged; one Z-Chromosome is carrying both mutations, so the crossed over variant)
1,0 cinnamon-SL Edged(df) (homozygous cinnamon and homozygous SL Edged; both Z-Chromosomes are carrying both mutations)

Take a pic of the cock with spreaded wings. If you have another dilute that you know isn't edged compare it with this cock. Edged will change (add) body colour to the flights.

For my eyes this bird is to yellow to be a pure dilute green.
So i agree with Tienie on the SL Edged Dilute green. But can't say if sf or df SL Edged.

He took the moulting abit late tough....but he looks much better.... I baught the bird as a grey edged/Dilute...but because of the lightness I use to think its Cinnamon....but between him and the grey Cinnamon he is much darker in Colour
Re: Dilute

He is not Cinnamon, dark grey feet and dark nails, you'll never get that in an edged cinn.
If anything split cinn if you think the breeding results match.
Perhaps df edged, but in this case 100% offspring will be edged, (keep in mind hens will still look lighter in phenotype)

Ants, if you have been breeding silver edged, or grey cinnamon-edged, from that cock, then he is grey edged/cinnamon (T2). He looks too dark to me for grey cinnamon-edged.
