: My Mom crossed a red factor with dark yellow, five chicks were hatched.
: One is dark yellow, the other four all have brown, yellow and white color.
: Since she has one yellow chick she must have one completely recessive
: chromosome. That means the brown and red factor genes are all on the
: other chromosome. If she continues to cross the red/brown chicks back to
: yellow mates what are the chances of getting red chicks? Will she likely
: ever be able to seperate the red from the brown? And finally, will she
: ever likely get an Apricot from the line?Hello Cheryl:
