The young will all be split Cleartail. They will be either SF Violet Blue 50%, DF Violet Blue 25% or Blue 25%. You will then need to breed the Violet Blue young when they are Mature to another either Blue or a Violet Cleartail.

A quicker way would be to get a Split Cleartail in Blue or Violet and breed to your SF Violet Blue cock bird. This will breed you either Cleartails or Split Cleartails in Violet.

Now I kind of sound stupid but what is the difference between violet and violet blue ? they both look same to me .. now i can tell a difference between SF violet and DF violet, As double factor is quite deep colored with a violet sheen to it .. where as single factor is little lighter in color .. but violet and violet blue ??? would love some explanation ..

Violet is Violet Green. Green with the Violet Mutation. Its a Darker Green bird with violet coloured flight feathers and tail. The Violet Blue has the Blue mutation added which makes it appear the purple colour. Most just say violet when they are referring to Violet Blue. It can be a bit confusing at times.
