blue x silver, F1's will be all blue, breed those back to the silver laced and you will eventually get blue laced silver (can use a splsh for this too)

gold laced to splash, (same as above) best to use blue or splash males if possible

black to buff, just gone be more blacks as f1's, breed back to the buff, and get 75% balck still with a few new buff and a few odd ball colors

it would be cool to have silver lace blue XD

I had played with SL X Blue Bantam Polish before......

I was trying for a light blue with dark blue lacing at the time..............

yep, should take you 2 years to get your fisrt ones

breed them either sex, blue to silver laced
first generation should be all blue laced

breed those back to your silvers, and you should get both blues and blue laced silvers,
then breed those blue laced silvers back to each other, and from then one you will have true breeding blue laced silvers.
Of course like any blued bird, you'll get 25% each splash and black too.
if you want to breed 100% blues out of them, then take a splash and breed to blue, those should make all blue laced silvers for you.

Will take a few years to perfect, but by the second year you will have some to play with though.
Not bad, I am attempting, blue laced reds in my d'anvers... now that's going to be 6-8 years, first I have to get the gold laced done in d'anver, the redden it up to get red laced, then blue it, going to take forever, but I REALLY want them in that color and pattern!!

Good luck

and Chickenzoo, yep those are some nice polish!

LOL, I was a Polish Freak..... hehe. I had so many birds I had to cut back to just some of my favorites of favorites....... sad when you can't keep all of them, but the check books happier.... and I can spend more time with the birds I've kept

Still hard for me to narrow down, especially the bantams.....

May I ask how in the world you found bearded WCBs?

(At least that's what it looks like what I'm seeing on your website? Am I seeing things?) And where exactly did you get your Sultan stock? I never see good stock either. This is just curiousity.

 

[chickenzoo]

The Sultans as well as the Polish I got from a breeder in south FL that was selling out their stock. I've been raising them since.
