d'Uccle color genetics

Pics
Anyone still around on this thread? I have some questions and pictures. Guess i'll go ahead and ask and see what happens!

Are these goldnecks? Ive heard someone say Buff molted. Is that the same thing?


When paired with a black MF, what do you get? Or paired with Porcelain?

Here are the others, just for show and any advice / critique.




 
Golden neck X black mottled = blue millie or blue mottled, I think. And golden neck X porcelain = blue mottled or blue millie split to porcelain.. I think :)
 
Hi, I'm new to chicken breeding and I learned a bit about the genome of the two I plan to breed but I'm still pretty green. I plan on breeding a female golden neck d'uccle and a male porcelain d'uccle. I am curious as to what the chicks will be like. I learned that porcelain is a blue splash over the millies black and red coloring and the golden neck is a white over the black. So what will the chicks be?

Porcelain is a lavender bird with the gold gene and mottling gene. Mottling and lavender are recessive, so all the offspring with one porcelain parent will be split(carrying) porcelain gene.

Golden neck is a millie fleur with 2 blue genes.

Here's what your offspring will look like

I have read some of these post but there is a lot to go thru. I bought eggs from someone that has Mille fleur, Blue Mille Fleur and a few others colors. So far I have hatched, I'm not sure of the proper names, 3 red mille fleurs, 2 golden mille fleurs and a golden neck. At least this is what they look like to me. What do you guys think? Also I don't know if the frizzle is a cochin, D'Uccle or mix. Anyone have a guess?

Little tip: in the upper right corner, check "Use Short Genotype Notation" and then hit the button "Punnett Square" again.
 
They could carry either allele. You would have to do a test cross to see if the specific bird is silver or gold. Spangling = dark brown restricted bird in true spangling. I am assuming the black birds are extended black at the E locus. Offspring will leak red or white color through black depending on the allele inherited

gold spangled female x black male = only gold offspring male is gold
gold spangled female x black male = silver offspring male is silver
gold spangled female x black male= both silver and gold offspring male is heterozygous (split) for silver/gold

black female x gold spangled male = silver males along with gold females female is silver
black female x gold spangled male= only gold offspring female is gold

A single laced with a laced tail variety would work also as a tester. The tail of the tester must be laced this is an indication the bird carries dark brown.
