I was wandering what are some possible colors I might get from this pair ? this is the first time I have either of these colors in my loft so I’m anxious to see what I get. Hen left cock on right. I’m hoping to get more like the cock I love his color.
 
Hello! What you appear to have is a black hen and an almond cock! Between these two you could get quite the variety! Depending on the genetics from the hen you could get blue squabs, black squabs, almonds and even spread almonds!

What exactly you could get is all dependent on the parents and their genetics. But I won't bore you with genetics so heres some pics of possible outcomes between them! :D

1. Blue (wing pattern depending on the parents, but since the pattern is hidden under other genes, heres an example of a blue bar and a blue checker! https://mumtazticloft.com/images/BlueBarHomer.png & https://i.pinimg.com/originals/6f/f5/c0/6ff5c05bec16a123204bf39148916612.jpg)
2. Black (Like the mom)
3. Almond (sometimes called classic almond) This can vary in colour a LOT from really dark to really light, a lot of red, a lot of black, etc! (http://www.cichlidlovers.com/for_g_almond.JPG)
4. Spread Almond (sometimes called sprinkle almond!) I've owned many, they're usually white or a light grey with 'sprinkles' of black, red, brown and blue feathers. Sometimes they have a lot of sprinkles, or sometimes they dont (https://www.taubensell.de/sprinkle_at_the_domestic_Pigeon-Dateien/image021.jpg & http://www.cichlidlovers.com/homer_sprinkle_1586.JPG)
