Isobel vs Porcelain

[yotetrapper]

The way I'm understanding it, isobel is a part of porcelain? The lightened buff color of the porcelain is isobel?

That's how I understand it.

So those are Isobel?

 

[Heather08]

i guess at this stage they are( not heard to color before), the are jsut a millie short of being correct to be porcelain.

You posted those on the Classroom at the Coop, didnt you? Yes, they need mottling in order to be porcelain (unless they were Silkies). As is, they are isabel.

So Silkies can be shown with or with out Millie? Thats weird.
