Mutations/Genetics

[KennRome]

Color possibilities of a Gray cock to a Lutino female. I know gray is dominate and lutino is a sex-linked so does that mean all the chicks will be gray???? New to this genetic color mutations and it is not the easiest thing to learn.. Please experts a little help Thanks.

Hi there,
this would be the outcome based on the birds not carrying any other mutation genes.

1.0 grey(sf) blue
x 0.1 ino

% from all 1.0 male babies
50.0% 1.0 grey(sf) green /blue ino
50.0% 1.0 green /blue ino

% from all 0.1 female babies
50.0% 0.1 grey(sf) green /blue
50.0% 0.1 green /blue
So all babies will be either greygreen or green.

But i would suggest the hen will be split blue so this is the possibilty of the outcomes.

1.0 grey(sf) blue
x 0.1 ino /blue
% from all 1.0
25.0% 1.0 grey(sf) blue /ino will look grey
25.0% 1.0 blue /ino will look blue
25.0% 1.0 grey(sf) green /blue ino will look greygreen
25.0% 1.0 green /blue ino will look green
% from all 0.1
25.0% 0.1 grey(sf) blue
25.0% 0.1 blue
25.0% 0.1 grey(sf) green /blue
25.0% 0.1 green /blue


Aany thing after the / means the bird is split to that colour.

Thanks Glenn

Thank you so much Glenn. So I am just starting a very small hobby breeding program because of my love for the IRN's. So the question is if you don't mind. I have a creamino hen parents were albino cock and grey hen is what I was told. Also have a cinnamon grey cock ( not sure of color background) what would you suggest setting these two up with for best color range for there color and benefit of my small program. Also have a turquoise grey hen but don't know her color background either. Thanks Kenn

The mother of the hen must have turquiose i would say turquoise grey blue,

There is a chance your hen is masking the grey gene. ino masks grey.

I would put another turquiose to the creamino and another cinnimon with your cinnimon.

For your creamino get a turquiose blue that is split ino.

1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue /ino
x 0.1 turquoise(parblue)Blue ino
% from all 1.0
12.5% 1.0 blue /ino
25.0% 1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue /ino
12.5% 1.0 turquoise(parblue) /ino
12.5% 1.0 blue ino
25.0% 1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue ino
12.5% 1.0 turquoise(parblue) ino
% from all 0.1
12.5% 0.1 blue ino
25.0% 0.1 turquoise(parblue)Blue ino
12.5% 0.1 turquoise(parblue) ino
12.5% 0.1 blue
25.0% 0.1 turquoise(parblue)Blue
12.5% 0.1 turquoise(parblue)


And get a blue cinnimon for your grey cinnimon.

1.0 grey(sf) blue cinnamon
x 0.1 blue cinnamon
% from all 1.0
50.0% 1.0 grey(sf) blue cinnamon
50.0% 1.0 blue cinnamon
% from all 0.1
50.0% 0.1 grey(sf) blue cinnamon
50.0% 0.1 blue cinnamon



And i would get a turquiose blue pallid for the turquiose grey hen.

1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue pallid
x 0.1 grey(sf) turquoise(parblue)Blue
% from all 1.0
12.5% 1.0 grey(sf) blue /pallid
12.5% 1.0 blue /pallid
25.0% 1.0 grey(sf) turquoise(parblue)Blue /pallid
25.0% 1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue /pallid
12.5% 1.0 grey(sf) turquoise(parblue) /pallid
12.5% 1.0 turquoise(parblue) /pallid
% from all 0.1
12.5% 0.1 grey(sf) blue pallid
12.5% 0.1 blue pallid
25.0% 0.1 grey(sf) turquoise(parblue)Blue pallid
25.0% 0.1 turquoise(parblue)Blue pallid
12.5% 0.1 grey(sf) turquoise(parblue) pallid
12.5% 0.1 turquoise(parblue) pallid


Thanks Glenn
