Perfect shade of splash?

[joe17]

I know color is worth a lot of points when showing and thats why solid colored birds tend to win more often. I have a few splash silkies and was wondering what is the perfect splash color for roosters and hens? I know if 50% of the feathers are black, they are DQ'd. How can you really tell a splash silkie has over 50% of black? Any pictures of that? Thanks!

I just started with the splash. I like birds that have a light base color and dark splashes, though the diluted down splash can be very pretty too.

These are my four girls. I have 2 that are kind of dark, one the is medium, and one that is pretty light. Looking good type wise.

Heres one of my cockerels too

The medium one is very close to the perfect splash.
