Silkie color mixes?

I've been wondering this for a long time.

I have many different colored silkies in one pen, under my 1 buff rooster.

What chicks would I get if I hatch their eggs?
Would I just end up with one color or the other, or some kind of poor quality mix?

I don't want to breed them if I get a poorly colored chick.

My hens are black, white, and partridge.
 
Well, in my experience usually when you have a black and buff, all you'll get is black silkie chicks.

I don't think a buff's genes are as strong as a black silkies genes.

I don't have any partridge or white, so i can't say there.
But with my black rooster and buff girls, i never get any mixed coloring.
