Dom Pied Green male to a Grey Rec Pied female..

Would probably be half normal chicks, half Dominant Pieds. All split for Recessive Pied.

50% Greens (or blues, if the male is split blue) and 50% Grey-greens or Greys. If father isn't split blue, all greens and grey-greens split blue. If he is, some blues, greys, greens, and grey-greens.

Also maybe some DF Dominant Pieds if the female is hiding Dominant Pied. If the female's parents were a normal Grey and a Dominant Pied, she is most likely Dominant Pied.

Hope that made sense and helped.

Thanks Jen144>>>>>

 

Yeah it does make sense...coming to think of it she will be a Dom not Rec, because of her parents aye....Does that change much

Dominant pied CANNOT be hidden in a recessive pied. Either one is dom pied or it isnt. Dominant pied is a dominant gene and recessive pied a recessive gene. A dom pied can be split recessive but a recessive CANNOT be split dom pied.

No, I didn't mean a Rec Pied split for Dominant Pied.

What I meant was I'm pretty sure that there can be Dominant Recessive Pieds. (from both parents being split Rec. Pied and one parent being Dominant Pied).

At first I was confused by the genetics of Dominant and Recessive Pieds too .... what you need to understand is that when a variety is Dominant it means that only one parent needs to be of that variety for some of the chicks to also be of that variety .... when a variety is Recessive it means that a Dominant variety can be split for it but for a budgie to be visually of that Recessive variety BOTH parents have to be carrying that variety.

Yes you are right Jen.

 

If both parents are split rec pied and one is dom then there is a chance of getting a combination pied (combined recessive and dominant pied).
