What is best to pair with a Green/Blue cock

[black.ivory]

I am getting back in to breeding IRN and I'm trying to find the best match for my mature Green/Blue cock. He has bred before. Just not sure what mutation to try and find.

I'm in Australia.

I have two babies .. Turq. Blue and Turq. Violet [cock and hen] but they are still being hand fed. So, they are my future breeding pair.

Green is dominant, so if you put your cock to a green hen (no splits), you will get 100% green chicks, (50% possibly split to blue). A green/blue hen will give you green, blue and green/blue chicks, a greygreen hen will give you green and greygreen chicks, some split to blue, etc etc etc.

If you're looking for other colours, then here are some possible combo's for your green/blue cock, and outcomes:

Normal blue hen=
1.0 green /blue
x 0.1 blue
% from all 1.0
50.0% 1.0 blue
50.0% 1.0 green /blue
% from all 0.1
50.0% 0.1 blue
50.0% 0.1 green /blue

Violet Blue (single factor) hen=
1.0 green /blue
x 0.1 blue violet(sf)
% from all 1.0
25.0% 1.0 blue
25.0% 1.0 blue violet(sf)
25.0% 1.0 green /blue
25.0% 1.0 green violet(sf) /blue
% from all 0.1
25.0% 0.1 blue
25.0% 0.1 blue violet(sf)
25.0% 0.1 green /blue
25.0% 0.1 green violet(sf) /blue

Violet hen (double factor)=
1.0 green /blue
x 0.1 blue violet(df)
% from all 1.0
50.0% 1.0 blue violet(sf)
50.0% 1.0 green violet(sf) /blue
% from all 0.1
50.0% 0.1 blue violet(sf)
50.0% 0.1 green violet(sf) /blue

Grey hen=
1.0 green /blue
x 0.1 grey(sf) blue
% from all 1.0
25.0% 1.0 grey(sf) blue
25.0% 1.0 blue
25.0% 1.0 grey(sf) green /blue
25.0% 1.0 green /blue
% 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

Grey Cinnamon hen=
1.0 green /blue
x 0.1 grey(sf) blue cinnamon
% from all 1.0
25.0% 1.0 grey(sf) blue /cinnamon
25.0% 1.0 blue /cinnamon
25.0% 1.0 grey(sf) green /blue cinnamon
25.0% 1.0 green /blue cinnamon
% 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

And I could go on, but you get the drift? And there's always the chance the hen is split to something that could throw different results.

A blue pallid or blue cinnamon would not give you visual pallids or cinnamons, only cocks split to these mutations. Albino's and Lutino's won't give you much either only blues and greens visually, or just greens visually.

Good luck on what you decide
