Posted October 17, 200915 yr violet and cobalt Hello i have a cobalt cock and a sky blue hen i will pair of in march as they are a bit young for now i also have a violet cock born last new years eve the question is do i want to pair it to my 08 yellow face hen and end up with type 2 yellowface violets like the mother or should i try and get another sky blue hen from the same bloodline and breed more violets apart from having a yellowface the hen is not particularly good then i could pair the chicks of those pairings towards each other and cross in the yellowface once the birds are old enough or even get a outcross yellowface with better features cobalt cock sky blue hen violet cock yellow face __________________ Edited October 17, 200915 yr by Uli Alsfasser
October 17, 200915 yr I tend to have my violets normal or yellowface type 1. Yellowface 1 adds a nice contrast to th violet, but doesnt blend with the colour.
October 18, 200915 yr this is what i would breed violet cock then this sky blue hen then i would breed cocks with the hens from each nest while i went hunting for a good sf yf cock or hen ,you only need on and you will end up with yellow face everywhere as like dean said they are more appealing and if you decide to show your got a good start but its up to you what you like best type 1 or two
October 18, 200915 yr Author thanks for the replyes i did manage to get a sky blue hen from the same line and i will pick her up this afternoon its 10 past 9 in the morning now over here i also will get a type 1 yellowface for this procect as i said apart from the yellow face this is not a great bird make a nice pet so
