Yellow feet

(1/4) > >>

dak:
Can you tell at hatch if a bird is going to have yellow feet?  I\'m having difficulty.  Likely just paranonia, but if this cockerel is throwing it he needs to go bye-bye.

Jean:
What variety birds are you referring to?

The yellow skin gene is recessive, so you would have to have two birds (or more) in your flock to create offspring with yellow skin.

dak:
Lav Ameraucana to a lav split Ameraucana.  That\'s my concern.

Jean:
I don\'t think that line would carry yellow skin.  I believe all the birds used to create the lavenders had white skin.

I have not seen it in any of my birds and I have lines from John, and Harry.

The only concern would be if the lav splits came from an unknown black line.

dak:
Thanks Jean, but if it would pop up, would it be identifiable at hatch or later?
