I have to say, your laced are absolutely stunning...

but I have a question about your 'porcelain red' - aka these guys...

they appear to be mottled reds...

typically, porcelain is used in referring to mille fleur coloration with the lavender gene added (turning black to the palest grey/silver and diluting the red/buff as well)
below are 2 images. that of a normal mille fleur d'uccle and a porcelain d'uccle...

They look like Jubalee orpingtons, I believe it is the mahogony expression of Millie Fluer.

Quote: I believe a jubilee orp is also the same as the tolbunt polish, which would be black laced red with mottling added. which these might be... don't know.

but my guess, as to the location of the owner, is somewhere in Europe... (the word 'coloured' gives it away).
and while the mille fleur markings aren't perfected yet, this is my own 'version' so far... (mille fleur bantam cochin of my own breeding).

lol..

He was too big to use for breeding..thought he would kill my poor pullets. He was delicious!!

That's one good looking bird!!

Thank you all so much for all the valuable information!

It is so very appreciated! I will do my best, to keep my flock of blrw's looking their best and to the quality of standards. I will post pic of them at a later date after molt to see what we got have that everyone thinks will be our best chance for success.

Thanks again so much!

Thanks for the compliments !
I live in Belgium and here we call them 'roodporselein', just like our neighbours in Holland.
The terms to speak about colours that breeders from English-speaking contries use, are sometimes a little bit confusing.
It's always strange to talk about a silver laced in English while we talk about al 'silver black laced' in Belgium. (again, literally translated)
In French 'rood porselein' is called tricolore and in German they call it braun-porzellanfarbig.
The right term in English... No idea...

ok, so basically, like someone else said, it's a mahogany mille fleur pattern. (e^b, Co, mo & Mh) very nice. I hadn't seen that before other than my own cochins i'm working on.
