Leavin, on a jet plane, don't know when I'll get her back again....

Isn't it winter weather there? Brrrrr. Still really warm here...don't you know birds are suppose to go south for the winter, silly

[betchacanthavejust1]

Can't arque with that.. I guess I loose......

She's not genetically RH though... she's genetically BH.
Females can't be both RH and BH

She's just not genetically YH, that's all.

Actually it nearly hit 80 today....
But will be a low of 38 Friday night

oops, I guess I shouldn't have said it that way... The word genetically was incorrect, as u (Tiffany) have told me more than what, a million times.....????
so, what u said, is correct... I'm wrong...shame on me for confusing anyone. One of these days I will learn the lingo.. lol
Heck, I'm still calling clutches, litters...

I actually had to turn the a.c. on today.. It was hot, humid, and rainy..
and it's still warm out there now at 10;30pm

I knew what you meant (though I stay confused )..... that even though she had a black head that all the young would be RH, if paired with a RH or YH male. All BH if paired with a BH male and if the male is split for head color well..... then you would get some of both. The term RTB helps clarify that
I think that is one of the most confusing things to breeders, when they breed a BH hen to a RH male they get all RH.... One would think that you would get some of each color....but it ain't that simple. I stay confused and thank goodness there is someone to straighten us out....and then there is always the genetic forcastor

Here is one of them - this guy is still molting so his wings could change

[CandoAviary]

Interesting, He looks like he has olive coloered spots on his back too. Post more pics when he has finished his molt. Very unique

I believe my male is considered a bronze wing according to Whinnie at Delmar Aviary.
