What would you get? Mottled x Birchen?

I have a pair of birchen cochins, and am going to be getting hatching eggs of mottled cochins...just curious what kind of funky color this would produce?

A first cross of these two, presuming them to be carrying the genes usual for these colours, would usually be expected to give black offspring.

oh well that's not too bad then! Except if i ever thought to sell their future eggs i'd have to let the potiential buyers know that they may get some funky offspring from the chicks hatched. well that's great to know because now I don't have ot buy black cochins to enjoy them

LOL. thanks!

It's possible the offspring would have leakage....
It would be possible to get to mottled birchen in a second cross.
