The points that identify her as a dominant pied are completely clear primary flight and tail feathers and the markings that she has are where a dominant pied would be marked. The splash of body colour high on the chest area is a bonus indicator. Her recessive pied features are very few markings and the base colour showing low on the body, also she is unlikely to develop iris rings. Male combinations usually have pink ceres. Her father is a sky blue dominant pied that is split for recessive pied. He was bred from a male cobalt split for recessive pied and a female sky blue dominant pied. The combination pied's mother is a T2 yellow face cobalt recessive pied. Her parents were a male yellow face cobalt split for recessive pied and a female opaline recessive pied The pair produced the 5 chicks pictured in the 2nd family tree picture. The expected outcome from this pair would be 25% dominant pied, 25% recessive pied, 25% normal & 25% combination pied Edited August 30, 2009 by Neville Link to comment

Now I understand why you said my hen is a combination pied. I am very pleased that she is and that I understand. I really like the combination pied and now I know what they are called.

I am just pointing out a few anomilies. If a theory, in this case lets say combination pieds, is to be proven beyond a shadow of a doubt then a person must submit evidence that contains no flaws. The bird put up as a combination pied based on the pedigree supplied can be found to be flawed. The father is stated as being a Dominant Pied split for Recessive Pied but this bird may not be split for Recessive Pied. The grandfather was a Normal split for Reccessive Pied and so can pass on either a Normal or a Recessive Pied gene. So unless this bird was bred from first in order to prove its identity it cannot be said for certain the father is a Dominant Pied split Recessive. Assuming the father is a Dominant Pied split to Recessive there is still doubt as to the result. The father can pass on the Dominant Pied or Normal gene and it may also pass on the Recessive Pied gene or not. So paired to the Recessive Pied hen the possiblities are as already said by Neville. No argument there. Those birds considered to meet the visual requirements for a combination pied would then need to be test mated in such a manner as to prove their identity before they can be labelled as combination pieds.

No argument there. Those birds considered to meet the visual requirements for a combination pied would then need to be test mated in such a manner as to prove their identity before they can be labelled as combination pieds. But the proof that the father is split recessive is born out by his chicks. The SF dominant pied chick and the YF cobalt chick are of course evidence that he is only a SF dominant pied. That the hen does not carry dominant pied is verified by her heritage. Therefore the other pied chicks which are clearly recessive in the least (not to say combination pied) verifies the father must be split for recessive pied. That they are combination pieds themselves is as you say only verifiable by test breeding. But what would you suggest as ideal? Pairing the combination pieds to normals to see if only normals and dominant pieds are produced? Or pairing the combination pieds to known pure recessive pieds to see if you get recessives, and combination pieds (as really only definable by their visual distinction between siblings?)

The first chick in the clutch looks like a combination to me but it would need to be test mated to be absolutely sure. Having bred a lot of pieds I do not have any trouble identifying the different types Link to comment

I have never been a big fan of the recessive pieds, but something about those 2 I really like! I might give it a go with the violet factor, I assume you can get violet recessive pieds?

I have a cock very similar to your hen, and I first thought rec. Pied. But he has now developed iris rings. He has the pink cere though? Not likely Squeak due the anti-dimorphic nature of the recessive side of the combination. The pinkish cere can still be a Dominant Pied it is just that the pied gene has acted in that location and not allowed the usuall development of the blue colour. Link to comment

Her first mate was a recessive pied. Their chicks were 4 recessive pieds and 2 combination pieds. (The expected result would be half recessive pied and half combination pied) Her second mate was a yellow face opalinespangle split for recessive pied. Their chicks were; a spangle recessive pied,an opaline dominant pied, a spangle, an opaline combination recessive & dominant pied spangle, a yf normal and an opaline recessive pied. (Not considering the yellowface the expected result would be 6.25% each of spangle (m), normal (m),recessive pied spangle (m), recessive pied (m), dominant pied spangle (m),dominant pied (m), dominant pied recessive pied spangle (m), dominant pied recessive pied (m), opaline spangle (f), opaline (f), opaline recessive piedspangle (f), opaline recessive pied (f), opaline dominant pied spangle (f),opaline dominant pied (f), opaline dominant pied recessive pied spangle (f),opaline dominant pied recessive pied (f) Link to comment
