Also what type of male should be paired with a albino hen to hopefully produce a albino male ? thanks Link to comment

An albino hen with a nice sky blue cock will produce albino sons. But she will also produce albino sons with a violet. They would however have a "pinkish" sheen. So any shade of blue cock, including gray, but the lighter the cleaner looking your young cocks will be. LML Link to comment

To get a male albino offspring you need an Ino male or split ino male. Link to comment

An ino hen will always 100% of the time pass her ino gene to her male offspring. They will all be split, guaranteed. Link to comment

Hedwig is now 11 months so am thinking about what best to pair up with her. Unlike her sister Milkshake who has some very light tinges of blue and talks, Hedwig has no blue in her. Link to comment

These are the further steps you would need to undertake if you wanted to create a pure albino line Take albino split cock from previous step to a true albino hen, completely devoid of any pigment in feathers and showing pink eyes {preferably not its mother} 2nd step X Xa / Xa Y X Xa Normal split albino Cock 25% X Y= Normal hen 25% Xa Xa= Albino cock 25% Xa Y= Albino Hen 25% 3rd step Xa Xa albino cock / Xa Y Albino hen Xa Xa Albino cock 50% Xa Y Albino hen 50% This does not take into account that the original normal cock may well be split for something that is not apparent to the eye but will show up in offspring, therefore taking more selective pairings than described here.

Correction, A normal/ino X Xa cock will not show ino as the colouring carried from the normal chromosome will overpower and hide the ino, only further breeding or dna test can confirm if split or not.
