Yellow Face Mutant 1 Australian

Featured Replies

Posted

okay, I've been doing a bit of research and thanks to an article Daz sent me about Yellow Faces.

 

So, please correct me if I'm wrong:

 

Am I correct in assuming that Australian Yellow Face Mutant 1 are SINGLE Factor yellow faces?

 

If I were to breed a Cinnamon wing Y/F Australian 1 cock to an Opaline Y/F Australian 1, what would be the outcome?

 

Would I get any Yellow Face in the chicks? (single factor to single factor = double factor????)

 

All comments appreciated. :rolleyes:

Sorry I'm wrong, start again :rolleyes:

 

You should get 1/4 double factor YF (white faces)

 

1/2 single factor YF

 

and 1/4 not carrying the YF gene at all

 

You can work it out like this:

You should get about 50% yellow face(single factor type 1 YF) and 50% white face(double factor type 1 YF)

 

Aha! Thanks MB.

 

How would theCinnamon wing and Opaline manifest itself?
