What do you get with BLRW x Swedish Flower?

[Chickenmath]

Just curious. I have a BLRW roo and some SFH gals. Has anyone had some chicks with this combo? I would imagine the colors could potentially be quite fascinating.

I think... think being a key word... the offspring would loose the mottling of the flower hens because they’d only have one copy of the mottled gene, and that trait is recessive ...and they’d be only partially laced.

So maybe a case where the whole is lesser than the sum of the two parts

Good post, would be nice to see if the SFH were blue/Splash or black
