So I have a partridge silkie roo and a blue silkie hen what color would they make? I also have other breeds but not sure what to pair with him. I have a son and a daughter out of the roo and both have the same temper as him. I was wondering what I could cross the young hen with? I have a BLR Wyandotte roo, an amaracona, a BLR cross roo, a porcelain D'uccle, and a polish. I was thinking of crossing with porcelain? what would those two make?

sorry, lot's of questions in one post.
 
You might like to check out the Chicken Calculator. It allows you to select some of the more common colors and patterns, and will tell you what to expect when crossing colors. It can be very fun, and takes only a little experimenting to learn.

Select "Help, Pick Color from List" to the right of the pictures, just below "Show Examples". Make sure you assign the correct color to the hen and roo.

If you select partridge for the roo and blue for the hen, it comes up with:
25% blue pullets
25% black pullets
25% blue roos
25% black roos
