Pied Genetics? Help Please

[mkane2013]

First off- I want to thank everyone who has been responding to my questions! I'm sorry that I keep posting new ones, I just like to know what I'm doing before diving in head-first.

I have a question about Pied genetics: Do the high-white parents have a greater possibility of producing high-white babies, or is it all random?

Thanks! :)

Hey Bro, this is the for sale section, you probably should ask this in the general discussion forum.

Luck!

Great question! And the answer is both. High whites tend to throw more high whites, but that doesn't mean lows and mediums won't pop out. Same with low whites, they tend to tgrow more low whites but can still throw medium and high as well, just not as much, usually.

Thanks Steve, that was a good read!

I had the worlds lowest white Pied male, and he threw nothing but 50% Whites to 90% White Pieds. The Het females were all unrelated, so I think it might be luck of the draw, or maybe, just maybe, something to do with the paired up animals...maybe more to do with the female?
