I am a beginner/learner when it comes to understanding genetics in regards to chickens, but I will share my experience. I bred Silver Laced Roo with 3 hens, 1 Blue, 2 Whites with Red. I'm not positive about what recessive feather color genes these birds may carry, as I obtained them from someone that got them from someone else. What we see visually is one thing. The 2 Ivory White birds actually have 1 or 2 red feathers, just had to look for them. I was assured they were pure Wyandottes. So these are my originals, a Silver Laced Roo & his 3 hens.
4 of their eggs hatched out, and these are the results. 2 Roos & 2 hens.

I was told that all 4 of the chickens are Blue Laced Red, but I am not sure, maybe they are a variation of it, but I need help properly identifying what they are. Anyway, thought I'd share what my Silver Laced Roo produced with his 3 hens.
