it would really depend if he got the fathers ino and cinnamon gene and the violet factor

 

 

lets do both

 

dark green hen/blue x opaline darkgreen/blue cock

opaline hens 33 and one third light green,dark green and olive

33 and one third skyblue,cobalt,mauve

cocks split opaline in all these colours

50 percent dom pied

 

 

then say hes split/cin/inoand holding violet

 

you get all the abouve but opaline cinnamon hens and

cocks will be 25 percent chance of being split cin and ino

you will get violets on top of your other colours ,skyviolets mauve violets

you could get ino hens which would be cinnamon opalines and pos dom pied

think thats it

anyone else

You have no idea how many results are possible without knowing the full parentage.

 

The hen split for blue raises the question is she a Type I or Type II Dark Green/Blue. Do you know her parents?

 

The cock, same question is he Type I or Type II Dark Green/Blue. We know the father is Violet but what was the mother? The Blue and Dark Factors are linked and this change the results.

 

I did a quick calculation based on this pairing - Dominant Pied Opaline Dark Green/Blue Type II cock x Dark Green/Blue Type I hen. I am only guess on the Blue Type I and II based on the info supplied and what breeders generally have in their aviaries. There are 40 possiblities. If I then factor in the Violet and/or the possible split Ino and Cinnamon the possibilities rise again.

Mother was opaline dark green dom pied.

 

 

I did have a quick look with the mother in the picture and assuming the Ino and Cinnamon are on different chromosomes the computation is 128 possibilities of which the cock is one of them.

 

I will take a look at it again tomorrow. The computer is having a dummy spit so I am going to close it down for the night.

When you say the nestmates were Violets do you mean Visual Violet or Violet Greens?

 

Oh and by the way your Violet must be split Oplaine to produce an Oplaine cock.

Cancel that last update........I did get the dark green split blue hens after all ( Henry George bloodlines ) and both sisters.

The 2 Dark Green hens are split blue and are full sisters. Their father is Henry George blood and is a grey green split lacewing. He is a nice size bird with good feather in the face. The mother is a white lacewing from a champion line.

I hope to start breeding the Dark Factors but it does seem very tricky when combined with the Violet Factor.
