Silver laced is actually caused by a combination of genes, but I think the black (from the motted or split hens) will mostly hide the silver laced pattern, although a bit might show through. As you said, you won't get any mottled birds in this generation.

The naked neck and the frizzle will each pass those traits to some or perhaps all of their offspring.

I'm getting ready to start working on some NN Aloha's over here, and I was told by the original creator of the Aloha's not to use my NN Louie for the project because although he does have the yellow leg's that's required, that he is silver based with the columbian pattern. So, I have to revamp my breeding pen's and search for the colored necked neck pullet's that I need for doing this.

As far as the mix that you are trying to do, I don't have an answer for it. I guess that you could try it and see what come's out of it, if you are not breeding or showing to the SOP standard's.

Edit: my new rooster for this project will be here in the morning.

Good luck!
