Hello again everyone! I was wondering if anyone knows what breeds or varieties have the Cb gene (champagne blond). It's a dominant diluter of gold. I believe it only dilutes feathers. (I was thinking the flarry eye grey birds at greenfire farms carried this gene but I'm not so sure since their...

Hm. I've always thought of exchequer as mottled with I/i+ (heterozygous dominant white).

I see. That avoids having to crossbreed. While we're on the topic of mottling, how do you think one would create an exchequer d'uccle?

Ah, right. I didn't consider that. It will definitely take a long time to develop a bird like this in that case.

Mottled is simply black with the mottled gene. This would be pretty easy, find a E/E solid black bird (not sure if the d'anver has the correct locus), cross it to your mille fleur d'uccle, take the F1 offspring and cross them to another mille fleur (or backbreed if you'd like). You should get...

Hey! Any ideas on the genotype of this fella? Also, just curious, what gives some chicks that gorgeous eyeliner?
