anybody knows ? thanks!

I believe that you will get normals and normal split to fawn but I could be wrong there... still learning about genetics. I'm sure someone else will jump in here and tell you if I'm right or not.

Check out Sally's link to sex-linked genetics:

You will get normal hens, and normal split to fawn males.

This is what you will get though, with a visual fawn mom you will get normal split to fawn males only

50% Normal Females
50% Normal/Fawn Males

this pertians to fawn shaft tails but the genetic explaination is the same

I'm catching on!

In short ( ), find a split male for your fawn female or let them have babies and find a fawn female to pair with one of their baby boys.

Same to zebras also!

so every time i wanna carry a gene it has to be the male who carries the gene?

No all mutations vary, this is particular to fawn

why so small

for the fawn

if you use a split to fawn male and a fawn female you get

25% Normal Females
25% Normal/Fawn Males
25% Fawn Females
25% Fawn Males


fawn male to a normal female owl

50% Fawn Females
50% Normal/Fawn Males


normal male to fawn female

50% Normal Females
50% Normal/Fawn Males

ok.

Some genes are recessive, dominant, sex linked...fawn is sex linked
