What am i goin wrong?

Post by mhawkelson »

Hi Guys.
I have a blue cock and i had a lutino hen and a .............well.....i was told by the store keeper its a hen..its got a white head and mix of white n light blue feathers on its body ..with red eyes.dont knw much about genetics but id say its lacewing. Anyways just a few days ago i found that the lacewing is losing a lot of feathers.i thought the lutino hen is beating it up.there was a little blood on the cage floor.but i dont knw who its from. the blue male looks fine.today i seperated the lacewing in another cage and found that i think its moulting...coz a lot of feathers are falling off.so i guess its under 3 years of age.

i knw if i mate the blue cock with the yellow hen i wil get all green chicks which i dont want.....but what would i get if i mated the blue cock to a lacewing hen.....the head is white and light blue body

second option is blue male with a light blue female.....

i have a third option....blue male with a blue female....i guess all chicks wd be blue.
can any one help me on this .

Hi,
If the lacewing (pallid) is a blue pallid you will get blue babies (split pallid for all the males).
second option is blue male with a light blue female.....
What is a light blue female: a blue pallid? a blue cinnamon? a diluted blue? ...

Yes you are right

Good luck
