Personally, now this is just my opinion, but Shamos aren't a breed to be fiddled with. They're rare enough and require experience enough, considering their nature. If you want something flock-friendly, don't go with games.
Also consider the price it takes to get yourself a good Shamo, you might want to ask if it is worth it.
I'd suggest, if you want a large or tall blue egg layer, to go with something like a Langshan. VERY big, tall, gentle birds. However just like Shamos they will indeed ruin the blue egg color, and it will in fact take generations to get from greenish back to blue again. Sadly, white is the best to cross to, but there's few if no white layers out there who fit your height and size needs.
