I’m the first to admit I’m SUCH a newbie when it comes to the genetics of the color varieties of d’Uccles, but I’m wanting to learn more as i have some color variations I’m wanting to breed one day and I’m hoping to have a better understanding of what exactly I’ll be producing by doing so! So far, I have one porcelain d’Uccle hen, and three Golden Neck d’Uccle hens with one Golden Neck d’Uccle roo. I’ve read how Golden Necks are just Millie Fleurs with the splash gene? But I’m not sure if that’s true or not. I’ve also read Porcelains are just Millie Fleurs with the lavender gene to dilute the black and red.
What offspring would be produced most likely by crossing the golden neck hens to the golden neck roo? Just more golden necks or possibly a Millie by diluting the splash?
What offspring might be produced by crossing the Golden Neck roo to my Porcelain hen?
I had a Millie Fleur Hen and a Blue Millie Hen but both sadly died and were two of my favorite birds. I’m hoping I can somehow breed these Golden necks and/or Porcelain and get a Millie looking d’Uccle in the mix even if it isn’t true to color standard.
Any and all help is welcome, please correct me on anything I’m mistaken on and educate me! The more to learn the better!
