Lavender Cuckoo Genetics

[kurby22]

Hey there! I know this thread is old, but I wondered if you think this baby is lavender cuckoo? I bought it as a SR lavender Orpington but the feathers seem consistently barred. If I kept this boy and bred him to my other lavender hen, would I get more Lavender cuckoo? Or am I seeing things and it’s weird leakage instead? Thanks!!

Could be a lavender cuckoo, could be a blue cuckoo, it’s hard to tell at this age. If he is lavender cuckoo, he would produce lavender cuckoo offspring.
