*I might be wrong*, but in your top pic, I see what I think is a blue mille fleur rooster, not a black mille fleur.
And in the bottom pic, I see what I think is a gold neck hen (probably a splash gold neck as indicated by the blue in her feathers) and a black mille fleur hen - I see no...
If he is a Lemon Mille Fluer then if you breed him to a Millle Fluer. Take the females and breed back to the roo. With luck you should have more lemon Mille Fluers running around.
This all depends on what color gene was used for your Lemon Color.

I've heard we have both here, but I don't have gold necks, so I don't know for sure.
If your splash gold neck had one blue mille fleur parent, then the other had to have been either a blue mille fleur or a splash gold neck - chickens can't be "split to" Andalusian blue.
The mother...

Here is a picture of the MF cockeral and golden neck pullet from a few pages back discussing the black blue splash and the parents of them.
This past weekend my daughter showed them at the local fair. They each took 3rd in the Hen and Rooster classes as the is no pullet /Cockeral classes. There...
Sonoran Silkies,

In Europe the Golden Necks are predominatly the...
Just to tease you a bit more with the Lemon boy
The main thing I think is wrong is the size of his comb is to large. But by breeding him to the hens that I have I should be able to bring the comb down in size.
Looking at breeding him with black millefluer and a blue millefluer hens. The...
Sonoron Silkies - I have looked at that web site numerous times and I find some discrepancies between it and Henks calculator. For example it gives s/s which I assume means s+/s+ as it s/s is not available in the calculator only the s+/s+. Same for Lav/Lav and Lav+/Lav+, I can't find the...
