D'uccle color question !

[shmooborp]

ok so if you have a millie roo with a self blue hen what would you get ?

anyone ever tried this? or heard of it?

thanks for any info !!

I thought Porcelain, but someone recently says that doesn't happen until the 2nd generation. So, I guess you get 50 millies/50 self blue? Not sure.

Picture of a Porcelain D'uccle? Feathersite should have one. I hope I was clear, I meant that 50% of the chicks would be Millie, and the other 50% would be self blue chicks.

oh yes i knew what you were saying,

i was hopeing to see a picture of the cross

You'd get millie offspring but with more black and less spangling, because it'd be like breeding a millie to a black. But the offspring will carry self blue, and if you breed them to each other then you'll get some porcelain and some mille fleur.

thats pretty interesting !! thanks so much ! i dont really know much about the genetics but i really want to learn. so im taking it that self blue is from the black gene?

I have millies that I breed but I am getting self blue, porcelain and white. I wonder what happens mixing all those to my Mille roo! I have to do some research too. I've enjoyed your thread so far.
