Photo of Lavender Orpington x Blue lace red Wyandotte cross?

I’m thinking of ordering some Blue lace red Wyandotte females and wonder what the offspring would look like if crossed with lavender Orpington rooster

I asked something like this before ( but a lavender roo over a jubilee orp. ) and was told to treat lavender as black. so, the offspring will all be lavender ( maybe with some leakage ) the first generation. crossing the offspring of the initial lavender x blr is where the real interesting colors should pop up.

Will the F1 have the Wyandotte lacing but just be blue/black with leakage?

No, I think they’ll just look lavender when it’s the F1 generation. I’m not sure if lacing works the same as barred, but I know a black roo over a barred hen will produce barred males and black females.

Like I said, when you breed the F1 generation is where you get the most variation in patterns & colors.

Oh, I forgot: I crossed a black ameraucana over one of my golden laced wyandotte hens. I got a girl out of the cross and she was all black with some brown at the end of her wing feathers. Unfortunately, I lost her to coccidiosis when she was around 5 weeks, so she wasn’t fully feathered yet but she looked like she was going to end up being all black with some leakage.

None of the offspring of a first generation lavender cross (if crossed to a non-lavender bird) will be lavender.

You’ll get 50% blue chicks and 50% black chicks. They’ll either be solid blue/black, blue/black with red leakage, or blue/black with partial red lacing. If you breed the offspring together or breed one back to the lav orps, you’ll get some lavender chicks.

Bumping this.

I did this cross recently , however with a Lavender Ameracauna and a BLRW as the female.
I had two F1s that made it to hatch. One was a male, blue laced. The female is bizarre, but gorgeous. Here are some photos.

This attempt has been one of my favorite crosses so far.

I did the cross and here is a pullet and cockerel

Dad was BLRW and mom was Lavender Orpington. I really like the cross!

I'm glad I found this thread because I have lavender orpingtons and BLRW! And I was wondering what I might end up with by crossing the two.
