What color is this silkie?

breeding cuckoo to black gives you the best barring. the blues I am using have very good type. I would rather get a good shape and then cross back to a black to darken up the barring.

this is cuckoo to black

Ok, there are no pics of this hen's father - but yes, the eggs this hen came from were supposed to be from a white pen. I was able to view photos of 3 of her sons (but I'm having trouble lifting them from a FB album to post here). They appear to be a cuckoo, a white and a white with small black spots/speckles (not like a paint tho), all with white skin and red combs and wattles. It probably won't help any, but the father(s) of these sons could have been black, blue, grey or white.

ETA: I forgot to ask, what is "Fm"?
