I have just got a cinnamon hen she is supposed to be split to blue and has some blue on the top of the wings, right up on the shoulder, I am going to put her with a Lutino Cock, can you tell me what colours I will get. I believe Cinnamon is sex linked and Lutino is sex linked also will this make a difference and if so what is the result.

Thanks for that Brendan, the fella I got this bird off reckons she throws nothing but Blues so I thought by putting her to a Lutino Cock it might give me something different.

john that is a good pair for a 2 year plan
from this pair you will get
lutino cock x blue opaline hen
normal/lutino/blue/opaline cocks
lutino/blue hens
and then the next year you can put a normal/lutino/blue/opaline cock to say a blue opaline hen
you will get
normal/lutino/blue/opaline cock x blue opaline hen
normal/blue/opaline/?lutino cocks -- normal/blue hens
blue/opaline/?lutino cocks -- blue hens
opaline/blue/?lutino cocks -- opaline hens
blue opaline/?lutino cocks -- blue opaline hens
-- lutino hens
-- lutino opaline hens
-- albino hens
-- albino opaline hens
you won't know the albino from the albino opaline hens unless you test breed them
but these are good colours

It's a hen, the bloke I got it off said she would throw nothing else but blues. After Christmas I will be on the look out for some cock birds to put with the hens, that pairing sounds like a good one for some nice colours.
