I crossed a black cochin bantam hen and a white Frizzle bantam roo, and I also crossed a lavender cochin bantam roo and a black cochin bantam hen; My question is what kind will I end up with and does anyone have anything like these that they have pictures of that they can share.

I have always raised all white or all buffs in the past, so I am eager and unsure to see what they will look like.
 
The only one I know of is the BlackxLavender crossing. All the chicks will be black but they will be carriers of the lavender gene. I hope that makes sense? If you were to cross those offspring with others of the same cross, then you could get (theoretically) 25% all black, 50% Splits, and 25% Lavender birds or a 1:2:1 ratio.
