What Does This Test Tell You?

This test looks for the tested blue eggshell gene and reports whether a bird carries zero, one or two copies. A bird with one copy can pass that copy to some offspring, while a bird with two copies is expected to pass one copy to every offspring. Results can help breeders make more informed pairing decisions.
