Words of caution are appropriate given the loss of silvers in the bantam and the time it takes to recreate a variety. I suspect the splash and splash wheaten would be safe over the long term. Self blue and black gold need folks to committ to them long term.

I don\'t know about taking on a new variety, but if you really need help with the black golds & lavenders, I\'ll step up.  You guys tell me what you need.  I have the luxury of vacant time right now.

Guest:
We are truly interested in the blue splash and the wheaton splash. As we already have these varieties. We feel that we can concentrate on these. If anyone has any eggs available or breeding stock or chicks later, feel free to contact us.

Well, since at present my Wheatens, Blue Wheatens, and Splash bird are all in the same pen, and I was planning on breeding some Splashes anyway (I have liked them since I got my first Blue Cochins), it won\'t require any additional effort for me. I am very familiar with how the genetics works (using it in my Dutch too) so it shouldn\'t be a problem. And it\'s not like W and BW are rare, right?

Guest:
Doing the splash, for me is a no-brainer....I\'m already doing it.....I just need someone to line me out on what we need to do.
   Bantamhill...... let me know what you need.  I\'m close enough to you to become an extension of your breeding program.
