Anyone crossed a French cuckoo Maran with a blue Orpington?

I was wondering what the chicks would look like if I crossed these two. I also could cross the blue Orpington with a sapphire gem but since the sapphire gems are so new I don’t think anyone has done that cross yet..

I’ve done something similar with Barred Rocks and a Blue Andalusian. You get sex links. Your chicks will have feathered legs. Females will be solid at hatch and males will have a head dot. Eggs produced from female offspring will not be as dark as the mothers.

Will they all have feathered legs? I have a splash andalusian roo and a French cuckoo marans hen, so I'm very curious.

They could, but it’s more likely that only about half will have feathered legs
