I ordered chicks a couple of days ago and they'll be here 2nd week of May. Anyway, I have all kinds of different colored chicks running around in my head of what they could possibly look like so thought hopefully you would indulge a newbie's curiosity about what kind of colors I could might possibly get from the Dom roo with all the females. And yes I do know i'll get Dom chicks from the Dom combo. I'm talking about these others.

I ordered 3 Dominique hens and 1 Dom rooster, then I ordered all hens of 1 Speckled Sussex, 1 Lavender Orpington, 1 Buff Orpington, 1 Welsummer and 1 assorted Rare female which is coming as a surprise.

I'm really curious.
 
The only one I'm sure about is the dom×lav orpington. All chicks will be black barred. And I think this is the same for all of them? Someone correct me if im wrong
 
The rooster will pass the rose comb gene one copy of the barring gene to all of his offspring.
Speckled Sussex, leaky black barred with white legs
1 Lavender Orpington black barred with white legs (and possibly black spots in the epidermis of the legs)
1 Buff Orpington a buffy black barred with white legs
1 Welsummer reddish black barred with yellow legs

Sorry, the black is strong in this one.

Also, talk about counting chickens before they hatch! :p

Thank you for the info, as for the rest. What can I say, I was bored. :thumbsup
