Breeding - Fawn Hen And Non Fawn Male.

Recommended Posts

I have been given a little fawn hen today, she is my first fawn so I'm really chuffed with her.

 

I'm hoping that in time, she will pair up and breed. However what are the chances of me getting any fawn chicks? 

 

I have a few brothers that are grey normal, Pied grey, grey BC and pied grey BC in colour, their mother was a CFW. The other males are CFW (one could be carrying BC, but he's not got smudgy tears like his mother) and I do have one grey penguin, but he seems a bit clueless when it comes to breeding, bless him. So I'd be shocked if she managed to have chicks with him.

 

She will be in the aviary, so she could choose from any of the above.

The only chance of fawn chicks would be if any of the males were split for fawn......which could be possible but you may not be able to distinguish the split.

I don't think that any have fawn in their ancestry. This sounds like a good excuse for a shopping trip for a male fawn then. :)
