OK, here are my guesses. Let's see what others say Lutino hen x DF white cock: All the chicks will be Spangles and males will be split for Ino. DF Spangle white hen x Spangle Grey cock: 25% Grey/Blue spangles (DF) 25% Grey/Blue spangles (SF) 25% Blue spangles (DF) 25% Blue spangles (SF)

Ok bb can you tell me what I would get out of this pair. Normal violet cock x opaline green spangle hen. One of the violets dad was a violet but that's all I remember of him. The green spangle was off Barrie quite a few years ago but I don't know if she has any other genetic stuff. Sue

I think this pairing will give you...
25% Normal 25% Violet 25% Spangle 25% Violet Spangle
All the male chicks will be split for Opaline.

That would explain my violet girl I had out of them.so my violet boy can't be a normal because the one girl I had out of the air is an opaline violet spangle.so would he be split for opaline my violet dad.

The Opaline mutation is sex-linked, so the cock must be split for Opaline. And that's why you are getting Violet Spangle Opaline chicks from this pair.
