Leghorn mix rooster

[BobbiStandley]

I have acquired a rooster that is 1/4 leghorn and is white with a tiny bit of color (black specks) that bleeds through on his wings, not really much to speak of. Would his offspring always be white or would I get some colored ones as well? My flock consists of a variety of colored breeds (no white). Thanks for any insight!

50% would be paint (white with black spots/specks) and the other 50% would be whatever. What breeds/colors do you have in your flock hens

I have easter eggers with black, splashes, blues, and then mostly barnyard mixes that are mainly barred in gold and black, plus some red hens and light brahmas

Since he's a Leghorn mix and showing a few specks of black sounds like he carries one copy of dominate white. Half his offspring would inherent it but half wouldn't so they wouldn't be white.
Dominate white doesn't cover red/gold tomes so even the white offspring could have more color depending on what the mom is.

Sounds like I could end up with some pretty birds, thanks!
