What would happen if I bred a Narragansett Tom with a blue slate hen?

What colors would I get if I bred a Narragansett Tom with a blue slate hen?

Unfortunately the easy way is out as Porter's Turkey Color Calculator is currently not working.

Narragansett tom (bb dd nn)

Blue Slate hen (BB Dd N-)

Offspring will be either (Bb Dd Nn), (Bb Dd n-), (Bb dd Nn) or (Bb dd n-).

Off the top of my head I can't necessarily put names to these. They are sex links with the males carrying a hidden recessive Narragansett gene (n) and the females exhibiting the recessive Narragansett gene.

I believe that (Bb Dd Nn) is a Barred Slate.

@austria89 can tell you the names for the different varieties that would be produced.

Bb Dd Nn = Barred Slate
Bb Dd n- = Silver Tipped Barred Slate
Bb dd Nn = Barred Black
Bb dd n- = Silver Tipped Barred Black

Unfortunately the color calculator is broken again. You can can access a slightly less advanced version over my website: https://turkey-color-genetics.com/2021/04/10/kreuzungskalkulator/
