Do you think if I crossed a cock from this cross back to his mom I would get complete blacks? Or little bit of both?Chicks would be black with gold leakage but if you crossed them back you would get some partridge and partridge with melanizers.

Some partridge and black. But black hens can be less homozygous than they appear and may produce leaky sons in the future.What would happen if I bred the F1 together? Just more blacks with leakage? Or some partridge and black?
Nope, she is the only banty hen and all she was sitting on were banty eggs. I'm not mad, it saves me a generation in breeding. I got the hen and the rooster as eggs from a lady, and I know she had crossed other cochin colors before, like black x mottled and buff x black, and so on. So it is possible she had crossed the colors before.Do you have a partridge hen?
Maybe the black hen is secretly heterozygous, idk.
