    Black x Mauve Orpington

    So I have a mauve hen under a black cock (mauve hen appeared to be blue when purchased as a juvenile. After first adult molt, it’s clear she is a mauve). What are the color options on offspring? I cannot seem to find a definitive answer.

    Black Orpington (split for mottled) Rooster x Chocolate Mottled Hen

    So I’m pretty new to the genetics game. Prior to now, I’ve just bred your standard birds such as RIR, Barred Rock ect. I recently purchased a Black Split Orpington rooster. He is split for the mottled gene and a Chocolate Mottled hen. So what I’m trying to figure out is what colors are going...
