gold laced B/B/S

question, since gold laced wyandottes have black lacing and black has black/blue and splash, why don't we see any blue laced golds, or splash laced golds? (or do we and they are called BLR?)

I am working on a bird that has a gold lace, then a black lace then a gold inner feather. I have a male and female that look very promising. They are not carrying the exact genetic combination but look very good. Hypothetically, I believe it can be done with the correct genetics. The bird would have to be a combination of genes not found in the literature.

No Barnevelder are black lace gold then black lace then gold, they are double laced.

My birds have a gold lace then a black lace then gold.

I will try to catch one in the morning and take a picture of a feather. The lacing is zonal and does not cover the entire bird. With a little time and breeding I hope to make the gold lacing cover the entire body of the bird.
