A red factor canary CAN breed with a dominant white, they are all the same species. The question is whether you should ALLOW them to breed. The red factor is bred specifically for it's color-red. The dominant white is white and YELLOW, if you breed to another yellow, you will get yellow and white chicks. Therefore if you breed a dominant white to a red factor half the chick would be a yellow/red cross which would dilute the red factor and produce inferior colored chicks. The white birds produced from this cross would theoretically carry a red factor and could be crossed with other red factor birds, but I am unsure of the quality of red that these birds would produce. So, if your white and red birds did mate, they would produce healthy, "normal" chick but the red would be diluted, therefore this cross is not recommended. However, a white canary lacks the lipochrome (which gives the bird a yellow or red hue) and can be housed with red factors and eat red factor food without affecting their color (except for the small yellow spot on Dominant white's wings).

What would happen if a black germen shepherd mates with a female white germen shepherd?
Chances are the puppies would be black as it is a dominant colour as the white is is recessive. You could get a white in a litter, but I don't suggest you breed a white as it is a disqualifying factor and you may not find them homes. message me on Just_ceri@hotmail.com is you need any more questions answered!

How would you determine the genotype of a white ram or a male seep?
Since white is dominant the best way to insure the ram's genetics would be to breed him to 7 colored ewes. If all the offspring are white there is a 99% chance that he is homozygous for white
Canary is to yellow as polar bear is to?
White
Can a white offspring be a hybrid why?
If the white trait is dominant, then yes. If the white trait is recessive, then no.
Is there such a thing as a black canary bird?
The most common color of Canary Birds are yellow and white. there is, in fact, a grayish green color that some canary's can have but it is usually mixed in with yellow or white. An all black canary would be difficult, if not, impossible to find. the closest to black would be a 'blue canary' which would look more like a slate grey.
In sheep the allele for white wall parentheses A is dominant over the allele for black wall parentheses a how do you determine the genotype of a white ram or male sheep?
To determine the genotype of a white ram, breed him with black females. Black females are homozygous recesive for the black trait, a. If the ram is homozygous dominant, all offspring will be white (and heterozygous). If the ram is heterozygous, approximately half of it's offspring will be white and half will be black.
Can cows be orange?
