Hello! and welcome to the OEGB thread.

Mottled bird's feathers end in a white "v" and the rest of the feather is one color. While a spangled bird's feather has a white tip and then has a black bar under the white tip.

Interesting, I never knew the difference, I could only tell between mottled and crele

Here is a better pic of mottled up close.

This is what my spangled lines look like.
See the tip of the feather is white then there is a black bar. This bird is not perfect in color because she has too much white but she is the best that I have hen wise lol.

[/quote] I love white oegb! I used to have em, I got some white serama chicks so I could try and bring out the white in my oegbs(they got it but its been taken over by bbred and black) I really see no problem in what you want to do[/quote]
I wouldn't use serama wrong ear lobe and leg color just pick the whitest birds out of each hatch basically I would not go out of breed on variety to fix a color
