Trying to produce more colorful egg layers

He looks pretty!
But looking at pictures gives me no idea what genes he carries for egg color.

There is a linkage between pea comb and the blue egg gene, but they can be linked in any combination. Examples:
pea comb, blue egg in Ameraucana
not-pea, blue egg in Cream Legbar
pea comb, not-blue egg in Brahma
not-pea, not-blue egg in Rhode Island Red

Many Easter Eggers have the linkage of pea comb, blue egg like Ameraucanas do, but some do not. Your rooster has a pea comb, but I don't know if his pea comb is linked to the blue egg gene or not.
