Arkansas Blue egg layers

Does anyone know what a CL male over an Arkansas blue hen would hatch out like? I know not sex linked wondering the color

CCL male should be double barred, so the resulting off spring would all be barred and if you use splash hens, all will be blue with red/brown leakage notable more on males than females I suspect. All offspring would be pea combed as well.

A few posts in is a picture of a splash maran over CCL, it is non-barred unlike your proposed cross would be but imagine that bird with pea comb and barring.

I'll have to post a pic. I can usually distinguish my one Arakansas blue (blue) hen's egg from ccl. but this last hatch one is REALLY light. Not sure if its a recessive white from the ccl. So if the Ccl was the male over a blue hen, I thought I'd get black chicks. not sex linked though

I have a recessive white AB hen

I imagine this pair will be a big asset to the breed.
