I have some Lavender Ameraucana pullets and a cockerel. I was thinking of getting myself some Ermine Ameraucana eggs for my birthday. I have been experimenting with chicken genetics 🧬. What would I get if I combine:

Lavender x Ermine
Lavender x White with Ermine
Lavender x Splash BBS
 
Since Lavender is a dilute of black you would get the following
Lav x Ermine = 50% Black 50% Ermine, all carrying Lav
Lav x Splash = 100% Blue, all carrying Lav
Lav x White = 100% Ermine, all carrying Lav
Lav x Black = 100% Black, all carrying Lav
Lav x Blue = 50% Black, 50% Blue, all carrying Lav.
Lavender can be used to substitute black in BBS pens and Ermine pens since it is a dilution of black. You could make some other varieties by using lavender in these pens.

This was extremely helpful. Thank you so much!
 
You could also get lavender ermine/lavender paint if you cross the lavender x ermines back to a lavender. And if you cross blue or splash to ermine you could get some blue ermines/blue paints. Keep in mind that these are project colors that don’t really exist in ameraucanas other than in experimental breedings.

Your welcome.

Huh, interesting. That is what I meant by other varieties, but I wasn't entirely sute on the mating to make the varieties.

To build off of this discussion, what would the results be for Splash x Ermine?
 
Erminette Ameraucanas are Paint Mottled birds.
They're Dominant White X Black Mottled.
