    Quote: If your mille fleur hens produce porcelain chicks, either your mille fleur roo is also split to lavender or your lavender rooster is split to mottled.

    d'Uccle color genetics

    Quote: What are you trying to 'work on'? If you want more porcelains you can breed your roo to mille fleur hens then breed the chicks back to the roo. This will get you a theoretical 50% porcelain chicks and 50% mille fleur chicks from their eggs.

    d'Uccle color genetics

    Quote: If this is the same one as on page 16, turtlefeathers said he is a blue mille fleur (I agree), not a splash. The gold neck is probably a splash or light blue mille fleur, which would leave you getting either 50% blue and 50% splash (if she is splash), or getting 25% splash, 50% blue...

    d'Uccle color genetics

    Quote: Again, sorry if this has been answered, I'm still playing catch up Black mille fleur to black mottled: First you need to know your andalusian blue genetics. Black to blue results in 50/50 black and blue chicks. Then you need to know your mottled genetics. mottled (mille fleur--mottled...

    d'Uccle color genetics

    Quote: Okay, still reading, but I"ve got a porcelain roo that also has this problem. When I got him I was under the impression that he'd just been 'bullied' a lot by other roosters, but that's not the case now and he still has it. Any ideas what causes this? I'm still reading, so I might find...

    d'Uccle color genetics

    Quote: Sorry guys, I'm playing catch-up. I don't know if this has been answered (probably, but I"ll give you my opinion), but the easiest way to see if it is white or splash is to breed it to a black (normal mille fleur). If it is splash you should get 100% blue mille fleur chicks

    Quote: Splash to splash = 100% splash Splash to black = 100% blue Black to blue = 50% blue, 50% black Blue to blue = 25% splash, 50% blue, 25% black

    d'Uccle color genetics

    Quote: First off I'll say that I don't have splash mille fleur or goldnecks. BUT I know if you continually breed splash to splash, eventually you end up with white birds that might have some black random feathers on them. So it could be that it is a splash mille fleur that has just been bred...

    d'Uccle color genetics

    Quote: Yup, although I've read debates about splash mf vs goldneck for the terminology. I won't breed him again. He donated his genes and moved to GA. That's too bad, I would like to get some blue mille fleurs

    d'Uccle color genetics

    Quote: Splash would explain why he threw gorgeous goldneck birds with the pale goldneck (buff mottled?) hen. His goldneck babies won BB BV for cockeral and BB RV for pullet against all other d'Uccles at the larger show. It would also explain how you got a black chick from breeding him to...

    d'Uccle color genetics

    Quote: What is gold splash and what is butterscotch? Genetically, I mean? This is where hobby names get confusing to me. The picture with the rooster and hens APPEAR to be lavender, IMO. But again, to the untrained eye, a mix of lavender and andalusian blue MAY not be easily recognizable...
