Blue hen x Lutino/Albino cock

Post by Faaria »

Hi there

I currently have a blue hen, although I do not know whether she is split or not. Both her parents were blue.
I am now looking for a partner to pair with her, and was curious between the albino and lutino colourations.
By going for either of those colourations, should i expect to have a majority of green babies??

PS. I also have a option for a violet cock. Would that be a more viable option colour-wise?

With an Albino Cock you will get Albino Hens and Blue Cocks. With a Lutino Cock you will get Lutino Hens and Green Cocks. If the Lutino Cock is split Blue then you will get Albino and Lutino Hens and Blue and Green Cocks. The numbers should be pretty even.

I would go the Violet Cock and breed Violets and Blues in both sexes.

Thank you so much for your reply. And yes I think you may be right about going for violet. It is more uncommon after all
