Ok well, I have 2 Black Giant hens and Tomorrow i'm probably getting either a Splash Giant Roo or a Blue Giant Roo
I was wondering
A. If i bred the blue roo with my black hens, What colors would i get and what percentage.
B. If i bred the Splash to the black hens what colors and percentage?
 
The Blue gene in chickens is referred to as Andalusian Blue. It’s not simple, you don’t breed Blue to Blue to get Blue. There are three components: Black, Blue, and Splash. Here’s how it works (numbers are approximate, your results may vary slightly):

Black x Black = 100% Black

Black x Blue = 50% Black, 50% Blue

Blue x Blue = 50% Blue, 25% Black and 25% Splash

Splash x Black = 100% Blue

Splash x Blue = 50% Splash and 50% Blue

Splash x Splash = 100% Splash
