Very pretty color! I've never heard of this variety! Are there any other crele color variations I am unaware of?

Only the Isabelle that I know of...

OK..Define Isabelle?

 

[OnlyOrps]

Dont quote me but I read that Isabele is the dilution of gold plumage to a light creme color... done by introducing lavender...? Correct me if I'm wrong...

Isabelle is a lavender Crele. A Crele is a partridge/cuckoo. Lavender affects colours thusly:
Black is lavender, red becomes cream and gold looks sort of pale lemon.

No, an Isabel *cuckoo* is a lavender Crele.
Isabel is just a fancy game given to a diluted color by lavender. Usually buff with lavender or something like that. You can have Isabel without having any partridge or cuckoo.

They are rather expensive My 2 cost me $240 and thats a good deal usally they are around $150 to $200 A chick and most people have minimums Thats the only reason I've never bought any. The minimums are usally like 4 - 6..and i had money to pay but I just never bought them.
