Their bars and checks are pinkish-bronze-grayish. If a cock bird has two colors, only the dominant color is usually seen. In United States, we have two additional less documented breeding Cream, however, does not show a tail bar, and khaki always does. here, where we know of several cases what seems to be the same

Being recessive, that means a cock bird must have two doses of the reduced gene to be reduced. However, when both copies of the wild-type probably destroys the function of the wild-type gene by 90% or 95% where there is a tiny amount of function of the gene left.
