This may seem a really stuuuupid questions to all of you who know cockers well, but this has been puzzling me.... I imagined that for blue roan puppies you put two blue roans together, but then I discovered that there is an orange roan somewhere in Jarvis's background that came from a blue roan. Now, I studied genetics so know how the gene thing works and recently heard of a blue roan and golden cocker from a working line who produced blue roans, goldens and a chocolate. So I guess my ultimate question is can you put any colour cocker with any other, for example blue roan with black and tan - I am not contemplating breeding, but this whole thing has got me wondering?
Can anyone shed any light on this for me???
