DYC single factor vs DYC double factor

[Amanda23]

Hello Everyone,

Here is a question regarding the Yellow Cheek Mutation.

What is the difference between Dominant Yellow Cheek single factor and Dominant Yellow Cheek double factor????

I recently got a DYC/pied hen and paired her with a heavy pied/lutino. I am trying to figure out when the babies will be using the Cockatiel Color Palette. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank You!

P.s When I use the color palette for double factor. This is what I get.



Mother: Dominant Yellowcheek (double factor) Split To Pied
Father: Pied Split To {X1: Lutino}


male offspring:
25% Pied Dominant Yellowcheek (single factor) Split To {X1: Lutino}
25% Pied Dominant Yellowcheek (single factor)
25% Dominant Yellowcheek (single factor) Split To Pied {X1: Lutino}
25% Dominant Yellowcheek (single factor) Split To Pied


female offspring:
25% Pied Dominant Yellowcheek (single factor) Lutino
25% Pied Dominant Yellowcheek (single factor)
25% Dominant Yellowcheek (single factor) Lutino Split To Pied
25% Dominant Yellowcheek (single factor) Split To Pied
