What sexes and colors could we get?

Post by DivineDomain »

At this point I don't know anything about IRN genetics so I am hoping that this will help me learn more about my birds. My mature couple right now is the Gray and Lutino Hen, my youngsters that are not set up are the normal green couple. So I have 2 pairs of IRN's. Now the normal Greens, I don't know if they are split to blue but when I bought the green male he was in a cage full of Blue and Turquoise IRN's so it's possible he could be split to blue. They were all from the same breeder and were the same age. He was the only green left. I'm not sure of the history on my others, my Grandmother traded Nanday's for them.
Here's the different combinations :

Gray Male + Lutino Hen

Gray Male + Normal Green Hen

Normal Green Male + Lutino Hen

Normal Green Male + Normal Green Hen

Any additional information is appreciated!
Thank you

hi

Gray Male + Lutino Hen will give you

Male chicks
grey(sf) green /blue ino
green /blue ino

Female chicks
grey(sf) green /blue
green /blue



Gray Male + Normal Green Hen

males & hens
grey(sf) green /blue
green /blue



Normal Green Male + Lutino Hen

males
green/ino

hens
green



Normal Green Male + Normal Green Hen

all chicks green.



The outcome would change if splits are with these pairings.

ummmmm.....not sure what a "green male with slightly blue head+green female" would be.
Am guessing a normal green male and female??? Green males do get a blue tinge around the back of the neck area.
So if both parents are green, then all babies will be green, unless there are hidden colours (splits) present.
Sorry couldn't be of much help.
