I kept one of the offspring from my Lavender Orpington Rooster and Buff Orp hen. She's a beautiful little thing but of course a mutt. Has anyone ever crossed an offspring back to Lav dad? What do you think I'll get? Pullet just starting laying so I'll find out in my next batch in the incubator!

Picture is from Sept, she's full grown now (hatched June 2019)

If you breed her back to dad you will get some lavender chicks, possibly some leakage in them. the rest I believe would be similar to the mother.

Thanks! I can't wait to find out she just started laying so I'll pull her eggs for my next batch.
