What do you get if you breed a Creamino male with a Grey hen?

Hi

Providing there are no splits and your hen is single factor grey you should get

1.0= male
0.1= female

1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue ino (creamino-Male)
x 0.1 grey(sf) blue (grey- Female)
% from all 1.0
25.0% 1.0 grey(sf) blue /ino
25.0% 1.0 blue /ino
25.0% 1.0 grey(sf) turquoise(parblue)Blue /ino
25.0% 1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue /ino
% from all 0.1
25.0% 0.1 grey(sf) blue ino
25.0% 0.1 blue ino
25.0% 0.1 grey(sf) turquoise(parblue)Blue ino
25.0% 0.1 turquoise(parblue)Blue ino

If your female is a df grey then you should get

1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue ino
x 0.1 grey(df) blue
% from all 1.0
50.0% 1.0 grey(sf) blue /ino
50.0% 1.0 grey(sf) turquoise(parblue)Blue /ino
% from all 0.1
50.0% 0.1 grey(sf) blue ino
50.0% 0.1 grey(sf) turquoise(parblue)Blue ino

Thats just a guideline to work on as we do not know if the birds are split to anything etc.
Hope it helps

Carmen
