Can i breed him to a splash hen split to lav and a blue hen split to lav and get true colors and not mixed colors? What colors would i get?

I don't really know what colors you would get with that combination. He is carrying two copies of lavender plus buff so guess it's possible to get lav, but I'd be concerned about the buff coloring in there. My understanding is that porcelains can be bred to lav, buff and/or porcelain depending on the dilution you are trying to create. There is no real "standard" for the color that I know of, so most breeders are working on degrees of dilution of the buff and lav. When you say "true" colors, I'm not sure what you mean since even porcelain to porcelain does not always create a "standard" colored bird - there can be a lot of variations. If you want to create porcelains, I think you are better off sticking with porcelain, buff and lav.

I have a few boys like this too and didn't know they would be considered Porcelain. Yay!
