Isabel whitemillefleur

Note

As the chickens of the millefleur color varieties age, the amount of white in the pattern will increase. Two-year-old chickens generally have the best pattern distribution.

Neck: hackle isabel; each feather at the tip with a tiny diamond-shaped white spangle, on the sides of the feather a isabel-yellow ornamental fringe; front of the neck similar to the breast.

Back: isabel, each feather with a diamond-shaped white spangle.
Saddle: hackle similar to the neck-hackle ,with a short white shaft stripe pattern, this is less noticeable than in the neck-hackle, because the feathers end much thinner than those of the neck-hackle.

Tail: steering-feathers, sickles and coverts white.
Wings: bow almost white; shoulder isabel, sparsely with tiny white spangles; greater-coverts isabel, feathers ending in a white spangle, which forms a clear white wing-bar across the wing.
