What colours can I put a wheaten Pekin hen with

[treens]

So I've hatched some chickens out of two trios - lavender cuckoo roo with a lavender cuckoo hen and wheaten hen, and second trio is a lavender mottle roo with a black mottle hen and a blue hen. This chick I'm sure came out of the second trio, is it a colour? It's very pretty!

Also will these guy be mottled?

Hard to tell. Lavender acts as black with other colors so could be either. Blue can be so light it looks lavender to so dark it looks black. You may have to wait until it feathers in more. Beautiful bird.

Thank you so much! I'm so happy with this little surprise, will be interesting to see what it grows into!

The chick couldn’t have come out of the second trio since cuckoo is a dominant gene. It is black cuckoo. It is probably the result of lavender cuckoo x wheaten.

Thank you, I have been doing a bit of research and understand that now and yes, it's a cuckoo who looks like it's a pullet which is even more of a bonus! I'll post photo updates soon
