i take that you aint got a clue , when does the young birds eye change in colour ? the eye continuly changes in a full colour eye a yearlings eye can get better as say a 4 year old but if took two pictures one as yealing one as 4 year old of same eye they'd be different , spouting half baked facts thats your perogative been more factual is mine ;-)

 

You sir can deduct from it whatever you wish. I shall remain within my rights to think as I please.

 

best wishes spencer

thats correct Mick thats why i only ever buy hens in  as there true line of herritage is from the dam unless each pair has its own flyte or each cock has 3 or more hens on bull  :) this is one of the reasons i wont right a pedigree out as i think its more honest to breed good birds than a jumped up piece of paper unless as stated above seperate breeding pens  :)

this comment is false as Sperm live inside the he upto 21 days after insemination. so your guess is a guess and guess who the sire is, the only way i think this can be determined is through an eye examination to trace genetic reading of the eye.

 

 

hope this helps

 

 

 

please explain as i wish to share in this great knowledge as im baffled to know as ive had same eyed parents breed different eyes and two dif eyed parents breed totaly different eyes  :-/ so as far as proof is concerned i think you have none and are left with no evidencial proof so now wont tell , but you did say it can be done and i fear it cant for the reasons i have given  :)

LOOKS LIKE  OLDYELLOW IS  RIGHT   WELL DONE MARK AND THANKS FOR THE INFO  MAY BE THATS WHY THE BIG STUDS HAVE SINGLE FLIGHTS

theres sibbling test out now as Dna testing has somewhat come on leaps and bounds , so it still is possible ;-)

 

Cheers and as Oldyellow says you can not determine by the eye.

even though said stud had these why refuse a test paid for by the fancier himself 2 determine true parentage...im i right in thinking they may have had something 2 hide???

i think Taylors loft of someone like Jack Barkel will know more about eyes i stil know a few basics which i mean to brush up again , but as i like colour birds and can determine colours from parings the best eyesign men can do near same with eye breeding and breed the colour eyes they wish some by deselection some by selction ;-)

i cant see why anyone would refuse such a test well the hen be 100% the dam but the sire may not so at least one could be determined by Dna and any man of his word would allow ;-)

Spot on with your comments Mark.

If spending large money on birds and you want specific blood any stud should be happy to allow a DNA test unless they have something to hide!

Hello All,

 

I have been requested to add my input to this discussion. I must say that I believe the only way to know for sure who is the sire is by DNA testing, as stipulated by Old Yellow.

 

I have studied eyes for 60 or more years and believe there is no way to see in the eye who is the father, although the eye can tell you sometimes who is not the father.

 

I am willing to be put to the test on what I believe, and I say, if a person insists their method is a big secret, have the courage of conviction and prove they know what they are writing about, by explaining their deductions, otherwise be expected to be regarded as under a misapprehension.

 

Regards to All,

Hi Jack,

 

Glad you've chipped in on here with your knowledge and experience and in my opinion you are correct although family traits are clear within the eye do you not agree?

Good comment Mr Barkel. I attended a genetics seminar and what i remember of the genetic traits of eyes is that you can tell who the father is not in some cases as you state. There are colours that are dominant over others and there are recessive traits etc it is a study in itself. Two eyes of a certain colour cannot breed an eye of another colour but dont ask me to quote which is which as I cannot remember and would not like to claim knowledge without firm foundations

 

I had a look at the birds on your website and I think there are some magnificent specimens and some top quality eyes on them.

 

All the best,

 

Paul.
