Any ideas on what poultry I should get?

Okay so I have some polish eggs in the incubator the one hen is white crested black and the other is buff colored, the rooster is golden laced. What are some possible color outcomes if anyone knows?
If the buff hen is Buff Laced, you should be buff/red/gold with white lacing from her. The white crested black is going to override the rooster's genes. Male offspring may develop some red leakage.
 
Thanks again they sound beautiful! I also plan on getting a barred rock hen and a Rhode Island Red hen for my blue Orpington rooster what would that look like if I decide to incubate them? I know I ask a lot of questions but I like to be very informed I guess!:gig:)
Thanks!

Barred Rock hens, bred to any non-white, non-barred rooster will produce black sexlinks. The buff holds it's own against the solid black better than most other colorations. Pullets usually end up with a lot of buff through the head, neck, and chest fading to more black towards the tail. Males inherit the silver and barring from their mother, but develop red leakage as they mature.
RIR to a Buff just tends to produce birds that look a lot like New Hampshires, but with white skin.
 
Thanks did you mean to put buff? I have a Blue Orpington rooster.
