I managed to figure out most of the possibilities using the chicken genetics calculator but I’m still curious about these two mixes because they involve buff
What might I get if I crossed Chonky boy with pumpkin? And what is Chonky boy colour wise?
And what about Cornflake and Doris?

Chonky Boy is(Single Copy)Cuckoo Mottled. Him crossed to Pumpkin who's Buff will produce 25% Solid Black Males, & Females with Red/Gold Leakage.
25% Barred With Red/Gold Leakage.
(Males will most likely be Gold Silver Splits)
(Females will either be Gold, or Silver)

(All will be Split for mottling)

Doris is Blue Cuckoo, assuming Silver Base. She crossed to Cornflake would produce Sex-links, based on Silver, & the barring gene.
Males will be Blue, or Black Cuckoo, & Gold/Silver Split. Males will have headspot at hatch.

Females will either be Blue, or Black with gold/red leakage.

Doris only has barring on her head and neck, will more of her be barred as she grows older? That’s cool having sex linked chicks is useful
 
Is pumpkin also Colombian with the black markings?

Barring doesn't like to show strong on blue, so most times it's seen in neck, sometimes a few other places. It's possible it may express more as she gets in her adult plumage.
