That's why, which is why I wouldn't.

You're trying to breed for CRELE not White Crested colored Barred or White Crested Crele.

A Cuckoo bird would just breed out any of the color, and thus you just have White Crested Cuckoos or Self-Cuckoos with recessive leakage popping up all the time. Solid black would do the same thing, but also dull out the barring too.



So it's up to you.

Do you want to breed for (as close as you can get to) Creles, or something else?

this one color i know nothing about i just got him be cause i he was cool

White Crested is the last thing I'd use with him, seeing that white in his crest.

Personally I'd do Gold Laced if I had no other "Creles." You can't make a true Crele Polish because there's no duckwings (e+) in Polish but you can get somewhat close if you mess around with Gold Laced birds and their genetics.



DancingHen - So I'm curious, you have Tolbunt girls, and now this handsome fella, who's from what breeder/lines? I'm gonna go on a limb and guess he's from Green Acres/Lucinda? That or Greenfire. Just a guess.

This rooster is from BYC member Baregretchen.

I also have a few gold laced birds to work with. We'll see how it goes. I am dedicating myself to this project for the long run hopefully.
