Posted November 2, 200618 yr okay so if i was to pair a yellow/green recessive pied with a white and blue recessive pied what happens? (this is for learning not actually breeding them)
November 2, 200618 yr the recessive gene is a gene that is not dominant or expressed visually unless there are 2 of the same gene The green gene is dominant over the blue gene So you would get 100% recessive pied and they would all be green unless both of the birds where carrying the blue gene and then you would have a chance of 25% of getting a blue based bird.
November 2, 200618 yr okay well, in my flock i have 7 sibilings 3 are blue recessive 3 are green recessive and then theres milo all from same clutch, so what does that tell me?
November 2, 200618 yr It helps to know the parents as well. From what i can gather from that either one parent was recessive and the other carried the gene or both parents carried the gene. One would be green carrying the blue gene while the other was blue.
