If I'm right about the hens, the blackshoulder chicks you hatched will be India blue blackshoulder.  Possibly white eyed and carrying the pied gene.  The colored chicks you hatched look India blue white-eyed.  If you breed either color of the male chicks back to their mothers you should get some pied chicks.  But no pied from the breeding group you have right now unless your male is carrying the pied gene.
