Thus three contains three-fourths of the Mood of the original hen, and only one-fourth of the original cock; whereas four contain just the reverse; viz., three-fourths of the blood of the original cock and one-fourth of the blood only of the original hen. Now, note that in the second crossing a bird from group two is mated to each of the original parents, a hen to the cock and a young cock to the hen. The result of this union has three-fourths of the blood of the cock 26.
