What young would you get

[Frankyxxx]

Hi.......

I'm thinking of pairing up a Female Lutino/blue with a Male Pastel blue lacewing

What young can i expect

or should i pair up a different color to the Male????

Ok this is the results for pairing a Blue lacewing Cock to a Lutino/blue hen, not sure how to put the pastel into the genetic calculator, but this would give you some idea of what to expect

1.0 blue pallid
x 0.1 ino /blue
% from all 1.0
50.0% 1.0 blue pallidIno
50.0% 1.0 pallidIno /blue
% from all 0.1
50.0% 0.1 blue pallid
50.0% 0.1 pallid /blue

So basically you would get a blue pallidino and green pallidino/blue males and blue pallid and green palliid/blue females
Pallid = Lacewing
Pallidino = a lighter shade of lacewing but I could be wrong, others can correct me on this one

Thanks

Hi there

I think pastel refers to turquoise in some areas.

So I think the results would be as follows:

1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue pallid
x 0.1 ino /blue
% from all 1.0
25.0% 1.0 pallidIno /turquoise(parblue)
25.0% 1.0 blue pallidIno
25.0% 1.0 pallidIno /blue
25.0% 1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue pallidIno
% from all 0.1
25.0% 0.1 pallid /turquoise(parblue)
25.0% 0.1 blue pallid
25.0% 0.1 pallid /blue
25.0% 0.1 turquoise(parblue)Blue pallid

Hi Carmen good to see you getting used to the genetic calculator, you are totally correct, Bastiaan's book on Asiatic parrots and their mutations list the alternative name for a blue turquiose as a pastel blue, so now I've learnt something new, thanks to you.

Thanks
