Pekin.. Cuckoo Rooster , what hens?

[EireRoo]

Hi so I've a very good cuckoo Pekin rooster and finding it difficult to get good hens in the cuckoo lines.
I've a very good white hen, chocolate hen and a black hen to spare what will these crosses bring ?

It depends on if your rooster is heterozygous or homozygous for the barring gene. If he has two copies of the barring gene, all chicks will be barred. If he has one, then all chicks only have a 50% of being barred.

Cuckoo roo x black hen - cuckoo or possibly black chicks.
Cuckoo roo x chocolate hen - cuckoo and possibly black chicks, males carrying chocolate.
Cuckoo x white - depends on if your hen is recessive or dominant white, and what she has under the white.
If she's recessive white, all chicks will be colored and carrying white. Probably cuckoo with possible leakage, or black with possible leakage.
If she's dominant white, 50% of the chicks will be white or paint. The ones that won't be white will be colored just like in the recessive white scenario, but they won't carry white, since it's a dominant gene.

Thank you for taking the time to respond and break it down for me.
He's bred from a long line of cuckoo genetics isn't my strong point.
I'm looking to get Cuckoo again from him but can't get a good Cuckoo hen
The above hens I mentioned are very good quality so hoping to get cuckoo back from the mix. Probably best keep the white one out then.

I've a good black hen there too

If your goal is to produce more cuckoos then I suggest breeding the black and chocolate hens to him, but only keep female chicks from the chocolate hen if possible, because male chicks would be split to chocolate.

Thank you , he's a nice type of Pekin so would be hoping for more cuckoo from him
