I have a Blue Cock and a Lutino hen, can someone tell me what combination of offspring this will produce and also if it wont produce an Albino, what I would have to do to produce one? thanks!

all chicks would be visually green, while all male chicks being split blue ino and hens split blue.
To get albino chicks, (blue ino) you could have a few combination pairings.
For example
Blue/ino male with a blue hen,
Green/ino male with a blue hen,
Grey/ino male with a ino/blue hen,
Blue/ino male with a creamio hen.
These are just a couple of simple colours I know of. I am sure there are plenty more combos out there that someone could sugest for you.

Thanks, looks like I am about 2 years away from breeding one.... Also looks like I am going to end up with a lot of green birds
Thanks again

Hi Bec;
There are not birds split albino since albino results from the combination of lutino and blue, there are not albino genes.
From your offspring you can conclude that your male is blue split lutino, and the albino chick is a female.
