crosses, splashes.

[Guest MBpigeonguy]

do you know the color pigeons, that are white with a splash of blue bar on the wings?

there are lots of names for this color, like cross, gay pied, splashes,

but i cant seem to find a darn picture, anyways i want to breed some quickly before winter,

do i just take a pure white, and cross it with a blue bar?

[OLDYELLOW]

did you click the link ?

[Guest MBpigeonguy]

kindof like this one, but more white

[OLDYELLOW]

gay pied , a white with a blue bar would breed similar pigeons

[Guest MBpigeonguy]

ok, good now i want to breed some, and i have none, but what do i do? i have all the other colors/

[OLDYELLOW]

the white is just a lack of pigment  two blue whiteflytes could breed above , to increase the chance use a  white and a blue or blue wf

[Guest MBpigeonguy]

OK thanks, one local guy here breeds them all the time, i was unable too. i think it was becouse the white i used one of this parents was a blue, so it really seemed to only breed blues.

 

i bred a white hen to a cheque earlier and got 4 dark reds.  :-/

[OLDYELLOW]

the true colour of the white in last instance was red so when selecting a white get a near white will have a blue tail or blue bits on wing then know your getting a dilute blue

[Guest MBpigeonguy]

ok so iahve this bb epid hen, whos head is mostly white, and has a white belly, and 6 white flights on the wings. so it would be my best bet to mate her to a white. right?

[OLDYELLOW]

with a white with a splash of blue then you know the true colours blue

[peterpau]

So can you tell me how you get a white with a blue tail and red in the wing a bit like a mealy. Cos I aint seen ote like it before.

[OLDYELLOW]

thin k you need to re read i said use a white with a slash of blue either on wing or tale as he used a white bird but got reds as its true colour was red white is just a lack of pigment and not the true colour but the one shown as white  

[ChrisMaidment08]

i have white with slight mealy feathering on neck and blue in wing from mealy cock white hen
