If they are not split for anything then you would get 50% Normal Green and 50% Spangle Green. If one of the parents is split for Blue, half the chicks would be split for Blue. If both parents are split for blue, 25% chicks would be Blue, half of which be Spangles.

By the way, it is always better to breed with two pairs so we have somewhere to foster the eggs or chicks if something goes wrong with one pair When would be other pair ready?

Ok I'll get in there shortly. Im not sure if any of them will want to breed now, it's heating up here for summer 30-40c here in western australia, although I guess they are used to it.

It looks brownish white so I think she will be ready with 2 weeks or so. Start building your birds with breeding diet and they would be ready in a month time. They will breed regardless of the heat.
