Genetic Color Testing for Chickens

We offer accurate, lab-verified genetic color testing designed for both breeders and poultry enthusiasts. Each test identifies whether your bird carries one or two copies of specific color-related genes, helping you make confident breeding decisions.

Available Tests

  • Recessive White Feather Gene Test
    Determines whether your bird carries one (single carrier) or two copies of the recessive white feather gene. This information helps predict whether offspring will display white plumage or carry the trait silently.

  • Blue Egg Gene Test (Oocyan Gene)
    Detects the presence of the Blue Egg Gene (Oocyan, O), which causes blue or green eggshell pigmentation. The test identifies both heterozygous (O/o) carriers and homozygous (O/O) birds, so you know exactly how your flock will pass on this rare trait.
    (This gene acts through a viral insertion near the SLCO1B3 gene, which influences the deposition of biliverdin pigment inside the eggshell.)
