Which is double factored....the pied or the grey part? ///////// It's a sky dominant pied,it's mother was a double factor dominant pied,i know this because she has been with three different cocks & bred nothing but pieds,her parents where both dominant pied so she is one of the 25% or is that 50% not sure? ,so i am reasonably sure she is a double factor.If she was a double factor grey the youngster would have to be a grey pied.

September 5, 201014 yr The hen doesnt look to be DF dom pied to me. Even if all her chicks were pied to date, the expectations of breeding is taken over many clutches not just two. You may have just been lucky to get all pieds first two clutches with her.

September 5, 201014 yr back to the chick i think he will be fantastic great long mask and as kaz stated his got nice chest area id love to see him on a perch side on nice blue also can i ask when you say blood breeding you mean brother sister unkle cousin or just same stud line
September 5, 201014 yr back to the chick i think he will be fantastic great long mask and as kaz stated his got nice chest area id love to see him on a perch side on nice blue also can i ask when you say blood breeding you mean brother sister unkle cousin or just same stud line Correct me if I am wrong PJI But i think what he means is looking at the blood lines behind the parents, as in father and mothers, grandparents etc. Like putting two birds that are quite oridnary to look at , but have parents that are very nice birds. Like history.
September 5, 201014 yr We have found through some posts that pieds can vary so much in how they look, so its hard to know sometimes and anyway your hen is behind the cock bird too :emoticon112: But that chick is to die for !!! You would have to be real happy with that.

Like history. //////////// Spot on Squeak_Crumble, In my opinion the parents are very ordinary visually,however the father/uncle/& aunty of the sky cock where all visually stunning ,so i new he had something to offer from hes background.
September 5, 201014 yr Very nice :emoticon112: Great top end and long mask. Good job :gday: ///////// This was a blood pairing Kaz,the parents visually are very ordinary.The mother is a double factor grey dominant pied,the dad a sky normal . Nice chick. Just a query.
