What color would this make?

Breeding a bourbon tom to a blue/red bronze hen. Porters chart shows a HUGE potential of colors but also some would come out as a bourbon red. If I take these poults and breed back to that tom later would the color change or would they all come out as bourbon red poults.

There's a way to get the calculator to use the offspring and a parent.

On porters, if you click the Punnet Square option you can continue with the offspring

If you are asking if breeding the ones that turn out to be Bourbon Red back to a Bourbon Red, yes they would make Bourbon Red offspring. Bourbon Reds are homozygous for their color genes which means that they breed true.

Yep that's what I needed to know. Trying to build up my hens I kept some different colored ones from my last hatch but this hatch I'm noticing over half are bourbon poults.
