Now I have a question about my own post! LOL! Does anyone know what this type of "chart" would look like if you were breeding Lavenders with Buffs or buffs split to lavs to get porcelains? Or is that not the same?

Porcelain x Porcelain= ?
Lav x Porcelain = ?
Lav x Buff = ?
Buff split to Lav x buff split to lav = ?


Bren- Thanks for the explination of why not to use blues and splashes! I was wondering about that!

To my knowledge: Don't hold me to this, but this is what I have read, and what I have hatched from a Buff/Lav x Lav breeding.

Porcelain x Porcelain= ? 100% Porcelain offspring (You might ask Betsy on this one, she is breeding Porcelain)
Lav x Porcelain = ? I do not know this one at all
Lav x Buff = ? Can give you all different colors, depending on the background breeding of the buff. I have Buff/Lav girl that throws, Porcelain, black, Blue, Bright yellow chicks etc.
Buff split to Lav x buff split to lav = ? You could get Porcelain chicks from a pair like this, but you will also get several other colors as well.
