Hello friends of Celtic Hill, Thanks for the pictures. Before Im going to say something about the photos, I recommend a lot of chicks to hatch the next season. Of those chicks you would hold on a well-colored rooster and with this rooster you can keep the color in your line to save. Even if that animal has a bad figure and type. There are many genes hidden in your male and might again emerge in the offspring.
In the genes of your animals are all genes to make a beautiful buff color on the animals.You will succeed to breed within a few years. By large numbers of young breeding animals will be your choice, to select the right animals, to increase. Your cockerel from the cross with the pile, which has dominant white in the tail and wing feathers, I would not use it. Use your clean Buff cock, and clean Buff hens. Breed as much as you can and select next generations for color and vigor and type. For holding your color you can make a new line beside your breeding line with the best colored male you can find and the best colored hens from your strain.
The real color of your birds you will see when they are matured. When they have the mature feathers you can see the real color. All time before you can cull the off colored birds with much white in their plumage.
