Of course! I recommend watching Weedemandreap’s video on colour genetics, it’s super in depth and very interesting!

I loved the effort she put into the video! Unfortunately, it does have some inaccuracies. I highly recommend also checking out Dr Sponenberg’s research. He’s goes very in-depth with his findings.

What are yalls guesses as to what the babies will be? What color? Horned or polled? Blue eyes or brown eyes? Wattles or none (please have wattles, I ADORE wattles) Josie is due in May so I'm making this thread so I don't go crazy in the meantime waiting on her to give birth.

Okay I am ready to guess!!

Josephine could be three options: Buckskin/Black, Buckskin/Sundgau, or Buckskin/Buckskin, since we don't know her parents. She is B/B or B/b for Eyes, W/W or W/w for Wattles, and P/P or P/p for Horns.

Enzo is Buckskin/Black because he is visibly not carrying Swiss, and Buckskins cannot carry Gold. He is B/b for Eyes, w/w for Wattles, and p/p for Horns.

Keeping all color combinations in mind for Josephine's pattern...
Per kid, there is a...

Pattern:

• 75% to 100% chance of Buckskin
• 0% to 25% chance of Black
• 0% to 25% chance of Sundgau

Eyes:

• 50% to 100% chance for blue eyes

Wattles:

• 50% to 100% chance for wattles (only 50% chance if one of Josephine's parents didn't have wattles)

Horns:

• 50% to 100% chance to be polled (only 50% chance if one of Josephine's parents wasn't polled)

I'm guessing twins. Statistically likely to both be buckskins. One with blue eyes, and one with brown. One with horns, and one polled. One with wattles, and one without. Let us know what you get!
