Hi, I asked this question in another thread but I am starting a project and I read that the jubilee pattern is from a speckled sussex and an english orpington. My question is which color of orpington would be best to cross to my speckled sussex to keep the jubilee pattern. Any help would be greatly appreciated I have had other breeds for many years but am new to the orps. Thanks

Black or Blue would be the easiest.

ETA: Theoretically you would get Black or Blue offspring, split to mottling with varying amounts of red leakage.

Thanks Jeremy, that is what I got. At least they look blue as chicks. Should I cross them with each other first or go back to parents+sibling. The Orp Rooster I used had red leakage. I want to establish the color first. In one line I am trying to replace the white in the jubilee pattern with blue.
