No. You will get some blue, some black, and some splash just like with all BBS.

Here are some picture of my 9 week old Jubilees. Looking for comment on their quality as well as gender. I know its a little early to tell but I have to get rid of 4 of the 7 by the end of the month due to space constraints. I would prefer to keep 1 cockerel and 2 pullets. Also posting this on Jubilee Orpington? thread so advance apologies to those to subscribe to both threads. Captions are under each image:

Tyson is the biggest and the most beautiful, but also the most aggressive. He is constantly beating up everyone contrary to Orpington behavior, I wonder if he will be a problem rooster when he grows up.

Pretty birds. Seems usually the ones with more white in the chest are cockerels. Your labeling looks correct. I like "pepper" the best

What do you think about Shorty. Looks like a pullet but she is about 5 oz behind in weight than others so may be not mature enough yet to confirm?

I would agree Shorty looks to be a pullet
