Lavender over Jubilee — What Color(s) Would This Cross Eventually Produce?

[cluckingheck]

So, lavender orpington ( American strain ) rooster over jubilee orpington ( english ) hen would produce all lavender offspring in the F1 generation, correct? But what would happen if I bred one of the F1 back to the jubilee? Would it be possible for some kind of lavender jubilee or would it just be either lavender or jubilee offspring for the 2nd generation?

side note: american x english strain would produce what kind? a mixture of both or one or the other?

Lavender bred to anything else is considered black genetics

Lavender x jubilee would result in black chicks with some red leakage. They would carry both lavender and mottling (white spots). You would have to breed the lavender/jubilees together and hatch a lot of chicks to try and get something that is mottled and lavender. Though you’d probably have to go into further generations to get lavender jubilee instead of just lavender mottled (lavender jubilee would also require the red columbian coloration).
