What color would they produce?

If I were to breed a black Silkie cockerel with a Partridge Silkie Hen, What would their offspring look like? I think it should also be noted, that the black cockerel does have a considerable amount of brown leakage. Thank you

Hope this helps! The second one is easiest. I know there is a longer version that can tell you comb types and how many toes type stuff from things that are crossed farther apart. But I think this is the simplest.

In my experience you'r basically gonna get black with some leakage.

Thank you! I was thinking that I may even get a dark partidge because my black cockeral has so much brown leakage that he almost looks like a partridge.

Leakage and partridge aren't the same thing.

My friend has crossed blue hen with a partridge father and NONE of her Silkies come out partridge. To me all though it's fine... they are essentially Silkie mutts (kinda like Ameraucana not bred to their standard). Hers are either black or blue and some with leakage. Nice enough and sometimes more unique than the pure varieties.

The chicks will hatch black, but when adult will have even more amount of brown leakage, almost birchen

Like this Leaky black Sumatra..
