CCL and Opal question

Post by Kbr42 » Sat Sep 10, 2022 7:38 am

Just wondering if anyone know what you end up with if you have both ccl / opal hens covered by a ccl rooster? Are the chicks a blend or do they still retain their breed specific characteristics?

I'd like to only keep 1 ccl rooster and I have 2 ccl and 2 opal hens and was wanting to breed them. Any thoughts on what I would end up with?

Thanks.

This is a very good tool, but it should come with a warning, you may need 665 birds to test your theory... ;)
