Multiple pencilling

Excuse me in advance, for my missing french skill. But I hope, that I find some new ideas here. I am sure, that here will be some talented plumage geneticist, too.

To put it in a nutshell ... I refer to this thread
http://www.the-coop.org/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=99328&page=1

Maybe someone has suggestions for my project, to get this plumage pattern of this Hamburg hen?

I do not know the race.

There is much which can answer you on this forum.

:)

nice looking hen and nice project , i hope you'll find the answers you need !!

Welcome! How do you want to begin? Which races do you have? Because it will be very difficult to manage your challenge! But if you are ready to accept this challenge, so go ahead!

Ich habe gelesen, dass du in Berlin wohnt! Wilkommen bei uns! Wenn du ein Problem hast, fragt uns! Es wäre gut für uns(und für dich), an deinem Projekt teilzunehmen.

In my last posting in the coop thread I have already written, that I want to start with Marsh Daisy (breeder homepage is mentioned in this posting) and with silver Chaams hoen (I want to get a larger chicken). Both breeds I haven't so far.

Sorry, I haven't read your posting( yesterday, I didn't have the time to :hkl: ). So you have to begin with hens which genetic is based on the E-locus E^R/E^R, these hens must be Pg/Pg and silver(sorry if my english is not very good).

I based my knowledges on the genetic calculator, so I'm not sure that it works a lot(because I read that you don't think that it will be possible to get multiple pencilling with E^R).

But I've got the impression that I only repeat what you said on your other posting.

I just wanted to show the (Marsh Daisy) birds, which would be perfect.
Actually, I would start with a silver Chaams cock and brown Marsh Daisy hens
The offspring will be consequently silver & citron and its easier to see, which patterns a "F0" brown hen carry. It's rather a guessing game with the brown Marsh Daisy cock, where the plumage pattern is hidden (in contrast to the Chaams cock).
