What color would you get from these two

What color would you get from a porcelain rooster and a black hen. Would they be blues or lavenders??

Im not a genetic wiz, but i don't think those colors make any combination.. I'd probably expect mostly, or all black offspring in F1.

Last winter I threw chickens together for warmth and easier for me. There was one porcelian rooster in with all blacks. I got two hens , one looks like real dark lavender the other one looks more like a light blue.

Chicken Color Calculator says a porcelain roo over a black hen should throw all black.....maybe your roo has some "splash" in him? Splash over black will yield blues

I love the Blue ones. I am raising BBS rocks right now and the blue ones (especially those well laced) are very pretty

Some of the hens could of been lavender splits.

A black cannot have "some splash." It would be either splash or blue if so. A "black" can actually be a very dark blue.

IFF the black carries a hidden copy of lavender and mottle, you could have some porcelain offspring. Iff lavender, lavender, iff mottle, mottle. But unless you know the breeding of the black carries those hidden genes, don't expect or anticipate it.

Since you got a lavender and a blue offspring, chances are that either the black is a dark blue or it carries lavender or both. What is the difference that makes you say one is a dark lavender and the other a light blue? Can you post photos?
