POW genetics

Postby mrbillrsd on Wed May 18, 2011 9:10 pm

Does anyone on here know much about genetics of Princess of Wales parakeets? I am trying to figure out how to get an Albino. What do you have to breed together to get an Albino chick?

    Judging by the Gencalc Calculator for POW's ---> http://www.gencalc.com/gen/eng_genc.php?sp=0ParPri

    Both parents must be, at minimum, split blue and ino to be able to produce albinos.

    Both mutations, being recessive, are required to be present in both parents, in visual or split form, otherwise you cannot get any visual albinos.
