What do you guys think of this one? He is not my bird but i am borrowing him from someone to breed with my hen. He is split to lavender and so is my hen so my plan is to get some lavender babies

... He is black split to lav so would i be better off breeding him to a blue split to lav or a splash split to lav?

Also i need to know his bad qualities and what i should be looking for in my hens so i can get nice babies.

I'm more concerned about his wings.Possible angel wings. Do they fold right? Also, he seems shy on middle toe feathering. It may just be the photo. Hope your girl is strong in the three areas that have been mentioned. Hope you get some further more expert advice than mine.
