I bred this
to this
and got all black back cinnies and black back normals. So - either one or both of them are genetic black backs, and all the babies from them are genetic black backs.
I plan to breed the cinnamon to some other girls and see if he throws more black backs, and I have to breed him back to this girl, because the cinnamons were just too fabulous and were snapped up the minute I posted their pictures.
I did have a clutch from them this year, but she laid on the day that I moved and it was just too stressful for the eggs, they didn't survive incubation and were all deformed.
I need to take some updated pictures of my holdback female bb cinnie and post them soon.
This is one of the BB normals - he wanted to be a cinnie
