even if they are both of the same ethnicity they have far too different pehnotypes, my father is blond with green eyes and my mother is brown with brown eyes, suddenly I don't really know which calculator should be trusted at last the best for me

Any? You are saying it like having both parents from same country was like an anomaly, lol. Also phenotypes don’t always represent genotype.

You use English taxonomy for pigmentation, I recommend French taxonomy (if you are really French).

And to answer you: K13 and K15 are very good.

Why are you quoting me sacre bleu.

None because they're all based on ADMIXTURE program. ADMIXTURE program is designed to cluster populations based on the common alleles they share and sort of disregards the differences between different individuals of the same ethnicity. That's why you'll see most members of the same ethinicity have the same population in 1st place in the oracles.
If you're looking for a program to detect the subtle differences between your mom and dad's ancestry then you need formal statistic tools like qpAdm or qpWave. The only problem is none of the people here know how to run these.

I think you misunderstood him. He's not looking for admixture percentages because the Dodecad K12 and any other ADMIXTURE based program which reduce differences between individuals of the same population will pretty much show his dad and his mom (if they are same ethnicity) very similar maybe 1 or 2% different in each component but will not tell him why his dad is lighter and his mom darker. That requires much more sophisticated tools which can answer those specific questions

I know how... But it is pain in the ass. I did it few times and no return...
Someone could make tool which automatize it.
