She cannot be a lavender splash unless both of her parents are split lavenders or one of them is split and the other is pure lavender.

Much more likely to be a light splash. When you breed splash to splash quite a bit the splash can become very washed out.

If I breed her to a splash what can I get? So your saying only two splash can create that?

I wouldn't breed her to a splash, you would only get more diluted splashes. Breed her to blue or black.
