Hi

I have aquired a yellow (red) kirkpatrick hen, lovely looking bird.  Just wondering the best partner for her really, I have a blue cheq kirkpatrick cock bird, would that pairing produce more of the yellows possibly?

 

would i be right in saying that any yellows this pair produced,, would be hens??    b,check cock paired with yellow hen

[OLDYELLOW]

yup yellows would be hens and silvers also hens but reds and blue chequers be cocks
