Mille Cochin Info

Genetics question:
What do you project will be the result of my Black Mottled Rooster with either the red hen or the true Mille?

Thanks~

There are a few pages that show results from certain crosses in the MFC project. There used to be one here on BYC but I can't remember which breeder it was.

Also, you can look on my website at my Mille Fleur bantam Cochin page at the progressive breeding I have done with my birds the past few years. I have bred in Mottleds to MF and continued to even breed those on but need to add more photos of my recent birds added.
I believe the answer to your question will be shown in the photos and captions.

The F1 will be all black mottled with the following generations showing more and more of the millie The f2 could have some gold or brown leakage showing but it will get better on the following generations Just keep breeding back to the Millie color cause you are using the mottled for type only and the Millie for color Going back to the mottled will give you black mottleds all over again and you have to start over Help any ?

Cadeau, were are you located exactly? I'm definitely interested in #8 and maybe even #4. You said you had others you may want to part with? If I am going to make a 2hr trip, I want to make it a good one (any trip getting chickens is good, though). LOL!

I would like to know also. There are a few in you're bunch I would love to have as free range pets. Especially #2 and #5 if you aren't selling them.
