Gold birchen hen x lavender cockerel

[valeriebutterley]

What will the above union produce colourwise?

Good question, perhaps someone else will be able to help, none of the chicks would be pure with that combination.

Would imagine you would get black/lav splits (look black but carrring one copy of lavender gene) with gold leakage around the hackle from the columbian gene which restricts black around the hackle feathers - this would be more pronounced in the cockerels with probably only faint gold hackles on the females. 17

Thanks everyone for your input, I guess it is another if and when, and then wait 21 days!!!, Regards VB.
