Hello

2 queries I have around Cordons.

If breeding a Pied cockbird with a normal hen, what would be the outcome in terms of will they be splits etc ?

Also has anyone had experience of breeding 2 hens with 1 cockbird

Cordon bleus have strong pair bond usually so 1 hen to 1 cock bird.Get best breeding results with 1 pair per aviary.

Pied in Cordons is autosomal recessive so all young would be splits.
