lutino and INO genetics

[sskmaestro]

Just sharing the outcomes of my projects here. Will keep updating this space. Hopefully it will be useful for others who do this in future

Pair 1 :
RH LB/wb GB/b X OH WB SB (INO)

all i got are 5 GB and 2 BB chicks. As per the generic gouldian calculator, all 7 chicks should be females. But some of them are males! I see one blue chick singing and some green singing as well. so blue will be split to lutino and greens will be split to INO. hens will be just regular gouldian blue or green split blues.

Pair 2 :
OH WB Lutino male /b X RH PB/wb SB

in first clutch we have 5 chicks. one lutino hen /b, one INO hen, one sf yellow male /INO, one dil green male /INO and one pastel blue male /lutino
pair incubating second clutch.

Pair 3 : RH PB Pastel blue male X OH WB lutino hen /b --> building nest

Pair 4 : OH LB/wb SF SB male X RH WB lutino hen /b --> building nest

Pair 5 : RH PB Pastel blue male X OH WB lutino hen /b --> male building nest, but hen not showing any interest.

Just a question to understand better.
Are all pairs in seperate cages? Or all in together?
Congratulations on the results so far.

I give double breeder cages for each pair while breeding and move them to large flights once breeding is done
