What does this pair produce?
Any guess as to what colors this pair produces?
They are both black mottles.

Re: What does this pair produce?
Yeah, it's pretty amazing.
25% of all their offspring will be Recessive White because both parents carry it.
25% of all their offspring will be Recessive Red because both parents carry it. However, some of those Recessive Reds could be Recessive Whites as well, and you would never see the Recessive Red because the white would mask it.
Black Mottles is obvious, both parents are Black Mottles.
Black, Reds and Kites because when you breed two non homozygous Mottles together, you will get a small percentage of selfs.
But why Kites? Kite because at least one of the parents are Kite Spread. Blue and Spread make a Black and a Kite is a Blue with Kite Bronze. So, in this case, the bird is Blue, Kite Bronze, Spread and Mottle. So when you mate two non homozygous Spreads, you will get a small percentage of non Spreads and Kite can show up.
Storks because homozygous Mottles come mostly in the stork marking.
