Blue Buff Columbian Orpington/Wyandotte

[Madie'sOddFlock]

I have a pair(roo&hen) of Buff Orpingtons, and a pair of BLRWs. Starting in February(depending on if they wait for spring to start laying or not), I want to breed them. The goal would be to get a blue double laced(incomplete) buff. Then with that generation, I want to breed to a buff again which should result in a blue buff Columbian. It will take trial and error of course and as usual, it will take time. Plus, there will be lots of chances that I won't get any of the "right" colors out of an incubation(so trial and error). I'm also pretty new to incubating, but I'm hopeful. With these 4 I should have lots of different colors and patterns of chicks, many of which should be pleasing just not necessarily "right".
Before I start rambling: any ideas, concerns, tips, etc. are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Madie

You mean like this?

I just got her from My Pet Chicken. Don't know what they were cross breeding to get her but you might ask them. They're lovely people!

If it helps them help you, Ophelia is from a 6/24/18 hatch.

@IamRainey more like this. Ideally with the same amount of blue(although unlikely) and a rose comb.

Oh! Very different than what I thought you were describing. But a well conceived project!

I wish you well with it and hope you get many serendipitous variations. Hope you'll update us with them.
