Hi

Results for pairing with a grey hen:

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

Results for pairing with a lutino hen:

1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue pallid

50.0% 1.0 pallidIno /blue
% from all 0.1
50.0% 0.1 pallid /turquoise(parblue)
50.0% 0.1 pallid /blue

If your lutino hen is split for blue or turquoise you would have better results:

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

OR

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

If the lutino hen is not split for blue or turquoise, I would probably then go for the grey hen, but if the lutino hen is split, then I would go for that one. It is a personal choice on colour preference though. Are those your only options regarding hens?

HI
McmillanBirds u r right its the personal choice for colour
me too was thinking for Grey as d Lutino hen is not split
the thing which attract me with Grey is

blue /pallid
grey(sf) turquoise(parblue)Blue /pallid

one more thing i want to clear is
blue pallidIno
pallidIno /blue r different which u mentioned under
1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue pallid
x 0.1 ino /blue pairing

i mean visually
regards

The blue pallidino has a white head and a pale blueish tinge to the body whereas the pallidino/blue has a yellow head with a pale greenish tinge to the body(blue will be the hidden gene and will only show with offspring from that bird).

The males should be slightly lighter in colour.

Is the chicken wire safe to use in aviaries? I thought that wire was too thin for ringnecks and always assumed they would chew through it. I'm sure its a lot less expensive.
