These two colors don't cross. They breed true one way or the other. It's either a Golden Neck, or a Mille Fleur, no in between. They would be considered pure colors.
I'm sorry, I hadn't realized that you answered till now. I also have a new piece of information, the birds are supposed to be carrying a silver or gold gene. I'm not sure if that changes anything. Thanks for the reply, and sorry for my late one.

I'm not great with the genetics, so I might have a simple question to answer, but I'm very puzzled. I would extremely appreciate it if someone could answer...but to get on with it, I bred Splash to Mille Fleur and got Mille Fleurs, Splash, and Golden Neck-which I was expecting. But four birds...
