It would help if you posted pics

But I'll bet the yellow one with stripes may be a columbian or silver mille type of color.



Cyn, Beau is really going to tick off those little girls by the time they even get close to being fertile LOL.



My TX millies are finally gearing up to lay, a little late for my May plans though

But I have 3 eggs from that pen now.
And one has fallen in love with TNB, so she moved into his pen. They free-ranged together ALL day today. It was cute. Who am I to stand in the way of true love.... So pen 2 has my original girls, B, and a TX gal.

Is this correct:

Porcelain X porcelain= porcelain yes
porcelain X black= black ( spilt to mottled and lavender) yes
Black ( spilt to mottled and lavender) X Black ( spilt to mottled and lavender) = Lavender,
lavender (spilt to motted) and Lavender mottled and black, black split to mottled and (black) mottled

Lavender X Lavender=lavender yes

Lavender (spilt to mottled ) X Lavender (spit to mottled) = Lavender & Lavender Mottled yes

porcelain X lavender = lavender (split to mottled) with leakage

Yep. I had 8 go into lockdown. 2 must have quit at the last minute. Can't complain about that!

These eggs were very fertile. Developed and were moving around like crazy. It's fun to candle them when they are so busy, I even managed to candle and see them without removing them from the incubator. All I did was shine the light on them.

I will keep you posted.

They do look blue to me as well. Will prob mature with some mahogany in them, as that's been my exp, but F3's on mine are more clear blue, so maybe you'll get lucky. The 2 w/racing stripes will either be lemon/citron type or will be a type of silver as WGC stated. Thanks for the PM, and I'm glad you had a nice hatch with GOOD TOES!
