REDCHEQHEN Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 So - thinking about pairing up a white/black grizzle cock and a red cheq pied hen Had the red cheq been paired to anything else such as a blue bar then one would expect red cheq and mealie cocks and blue bar or cheq hens What are the possible colourings with the red cheq pied and grizzle combinations (colourings and likely sexes please if poss) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Novice Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 There is a facebook group called Pigeon Genetics. The people there are very knowledgeable and helpful. Even for those not interested in colour mating there is some interesting reading on their pages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolldowns54 Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 Ash red check paired to black is also a sex linked mating so the black series birds will be the opposite sex to the parent black likewise with the red check plus the other genes in the mix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dooscoo Posted November 29, 2014 Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 Hi lads, there use to be a dutch site that you could enter the colour of both sexes and it will tell you what will come out.Graeme Boyd or Robert Bennion on the fancy pigeon chatter site could give you more info, if the Grizzle cock is Blue or Black paired onto a red hen is a sex linked mating.The guys I mention know a lot about colour breeding, some will say colour has no place in racing pigeons but the fancy guys know all about great width of feather.

REDCHEQHEN Posted February 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 red with or without pied and cheq with or without pied and blue griz , black griz , red grizzle , the grizzles will have a lot of white as used a pied Any other throw backs possible I'm a little disappointed up to now with the colouring - a blue pied and a pale red chequer by the look of it - some of the pictures show the dam (red pied) and sire (grizzle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
