Crossing a blue Silkie with a black Silkie will give you 50% blue and 50% black. Crossing a blue Silkie with another blue Silkie will give you 25% black, 50% blue, and 25% splash.

this is funny because i did this on accident but if you have a white silkie with a hidden gene you can get a couple of splashies with 2 whities

True, but in order to get the percentages, you need to hatch a good number of eggs. If you only hatch 12, you may or may not get even one Splash. The more eggs you hatch, the better your odds.
