    How to Produce Mottled Cuckoo

    This is one colour combo i can never see enough of, it looks really smart on the females with the Black, light grey and white effect, and Homozygous Cuckoo males look incredibly bright. It also worked on Barred, but personally i like the effect on cuckoo. You need to start with a Light...
