The Chicks produced should
be theoretically in equal proportions as to what is in the genetic make up of
the breeding pairs: either 50% of each or 25% of each.
A good pairing for the
Clearbody are Lutino and Albino, although the use of normal birds to maintain or
increase the size and quality are encouraged, the use of ino has the efect of
lightening the body colour.

Again the Chicks produced should
be theoretically in equal proportions as to what is in the genetic make up of
the breeding pairs are : either 50% of each or 25% of each, but could just as
easy be all the same.
It is worth remembering
that Ino cocks cannot be split for clearbody, yet clearbody cocks can be split
for Ino
Normal/Split
Clearbody Cocks :-This Bird will look a visual
Normal when paired up.
Hens cannot be split for
clearbody, if they don't show clearbody then they are not.
