hi all!
so i’m hatching 5 doz+ Silkie eggs 🤞🏽 (color listed below.) while i’ll have pure breeding pens in which i will focus on SOP, i’m wondering what fun colors i could get from crossing any of the following, other than different colored barred/cuckoo/mottled? thanks!

-B/B/S
-Black Mottled
-Chocolated Mottled
-Barred and Cuckoo
-Buff
-Partridge
 
1st generation crosses you can't get anything fun except blue barred.
If you don't have a barred rooster you'll only get barred boys from a barred female.
Buff and partridge won't play nice with the others.
Mottled takes a mottled gene from both parents.
You can cross the mottled chocolate with barred but the chocolate would need to be a rooster and that would still only produce chocolate females.
If that rooster is crossed to a barred female the only barred offspring would be males so no chocolate, just regular barred.
