Hi Rodney, welcome to the forum. There's a lot of very experienced people on this forum who will surely be able to answer any genetics question you can throw at them

Welcome to the forum. If you are trying to navigate genetics, I asume you are keeping Gouldians?

. i know that putting a fawn hen with a normal cock ...= fawn hens and normal cocks...? are the cocks split ?.
also putting pieds to normals.......or pieds to fawn ? would like to find out all of these and any other combinations of these birds
thank you for your interest,as i have been keen on breeding diamonds for about 20 yrs but sellers have been selling me cock birds only
so as you can see i have been getting no where,but with dna sexing i hope to change [before i run out of time...ha,ha.]...rodney.

Hi Rod, Fawn diamonds are not really fawns they are cinnamon although there are some fawns about but no where as common. Putting a cinnamon hen to a normal cock will produce split cocks and all normal hens as you can't get a split hen in cinnamon as it is a sex linked recessive mutation.
Best to start a new topic say in mutations for better more precise explanation of the other mutations. Craig
