jam Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Hey all, I have a stunning black brahma cockerel who I would love to get some girls for so I can breed some blue brahmas. Unfortunately I cant find anyone in my area who has good quality, blue, black or splash brahma pullets, so Im a bit lost as to what to do next. I know someone with gold blue laced brahmas which are lovely, but Im not sure how the offspring will turn out as far as what colours the chicks will be. Can anyone help??

Griffin Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 The only person I know with blue Brahmas is Kelloggs from the Practical Poultry forum. I think she's in Norfolk though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 The chicken genetics calculator says 50% black and 50% blue offspring Personally I dont see how the lacing wont creep in to the equation but they are the experts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zakjon-98 Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Chalk hill poultry has blue brahmas. I haven't been there myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jam Posted May 7, 2011 Author Share Posted May 7, 2011 So there would be just blue and black, but no gold at all? at least There'll be blue offspring. Anything gold would be a bonus though And thanks zakjon-98, ill have a look and see if they have a website Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
