6 *true* black wing bronze turkey hatching eggs
We are offering 6+ True Black Wing Bronze Turkey Hatching Eggs. I have included some information on the difference between the Black Wing Bronze and the " Tiger Bronze" that gets mistaken for the the true Black Wing Bronze. Our Breeding Stock comes from a private breeder in Texas.
We are tested by the State of Texas every year.The first two pictures is of one of our Toms he does not like the camera, the third is one of our hens The last two pictures are of two breeders on Feathersite notice the difference in the tails. The True Black Wing Bronze breeds true the Tiger Bronze do not..
The originator of the Crimson Dawn was Tom Stodghill from Terrell,TX .
This color pattern is technically known as Black Winged Bronze and is the result of the action of a recessive genetic factor on the bronze pattern which is a recessive allele to both black and bronze patterns - B (black), b+ (normal wild bronze and b1 (black winged bronze). The "b1" allele is also what gives Royal Palm,Calico and Sweetgrass birds their solid slatey-black wings.
The Crimson Dawn Primaries are solid black, Lower secondaries are black overlaid with crimson-gold bronzing.Upper secondaries are black finely stippled with buff , tips pure white forming a line across the wing. The main tail is tan, irregularly penciled with black, tip possessing a band of rich crimson-gold bronzing ,bordered front and rear by a narrow black band and terminated by a broad band of pure white.The major visual effect is the predominance of a rose pink cast to the iridescence of the feathers in the sunlight, That's why the originator "Tom Stodghill" dubbed them "Crimson Dawns."
Tiger Bronze is a Black winged bronze based with the addition of a single gray (aka palm) and also homozygous for the pencilling genes.
This variety is quite often mislabeled a pure black winged bronze (aka Crimson Dawn) (which actually doesn't carry the cg and pn genes)
When breeding the Tiger Bronze three results occur- Tiger Bronze, Pencilled Sweetgrass and a Pencilled Black Winged Bronze.
