Blue Orps, what colors can they be bred with?

[BikerBabeRules]

I have the opportunity to get A blue orp roo from a friend here who got them from Sandhill. She has a white roo and a blue splash? hen she is willing to part with. If I take the blue roo and the blue splash hen, will i get blues and splashes? What will I get? Will the white roo play any part?

With the blue and splash you could get a certain amt of blue/Splash and possibly black. You would not want to breed tthe white with the blues.

From a blue to splash cross, you can only get blue and splash, no black.

black x blue = 50% black, 50% blue
blue x blue = 25% black, 50% blue, 25% splash
blue x splash = 50% blue, 50% splash
black x splash = 100% blue
splash x splash = 100% splash (too many generations of splash to splash crossing can result in a diminishing of the darker blue feathers and an overall decrease in the quality of the color).

Thank you. I'll go with the blue and the blue splash.
