Just want to try it out but Millie and Porcelain d'uccle?

[ShellyBear]

I am thinking of getting a few Millies an Porcelains to breed but keep track of breeding and see what color I can get. I want to get a color that will not go back to the parents, but create a new color.Is that possible?

The Porcelain pattern on D’uccles is the same as the mille fleur with the exception that the Porcelain carry the autosomal recessive lavender mutation gene(lav/lav) and the MF lacks it, they have the wildtype dominant none lavender gene(Lav+/Lav+) and when both are crossed they will produce Mille Fleur pattern but they are hiding one copy of lavender(Lav+/lav).

Oh ok, so in the end the Millie will probably always show?

On the First cross MF x Porcelain will produce 100% MF patter, breeding this cross back to Porcelain will produce 50% MF and 50% Porcelain pattern, but if you cross this cross with each other 75% will be MF and 25% Porcelain.
