Blue mottled Cochin?

Do you have a black hen or roo? Black × Blue = 100% Blue ... If my thoughts are correct(and if I haven't confused myself), if you breed that chick to a black bird it will produce blue and blue mottled chicks.

Nope, Black x Blue is 50/50 black or blue.

EDITED TO FIX MY ERROR
Is this correct or did my brain fail me again?

Do you mean breeding back the original chick? I guess it would depend if it turns out to be mottled, or just carrying mottled. But either way, if bred to black, it would only be a carrier of mottled also.
And they mentioned buff too... I know nothing about mixing in buff colors. :confused:

I'm pretty sure black mottled × buff columbian results in black with leakage? Not entirely sure, though.
