    you must have blue genes in parents if you breed a splash cochin to a black cochin the result is all blue offspring. the originals you start with need the blue, black, splash genes. if that makes sense to you

    could be a reverse paint, or more likely genes not stable for this cross breed back to one side or other, and you will probably get more consistent results.
