I breed a pure breed blue Orpington rooster with a pure breed chocolate Orpington hen? Would I get both blue and chocolate chicks? Or would I get a different color all together?

Started from eggs now the flock is coming together nicely. It's been a pleasure to work with these magnificent birds. I haven't found my roosters to be aggressive. And one of my hens even went broody and hatched 4 little chicks. It's been a wild ride but a great experience!!

They all three were born March 13 2017. Thanks for any help!

Cost some cash but after the latest dog attack on my flock from a neighbors pit bull. I feel like I have no choice. I put electric fence wire around my entire yard attached to tpost. Then premier one fencing around the whole coop and made a nice run with it. I hope I'm safe now.

First peachicks ever for me !!! Another one has pipped also!

Ok so here's the story. I had 4 chocolate Orpington eggs it was day 22 and they had not hatched. So I had two incubators going at the same time a day apart. So I cleaned out the one incubator. And put the four eggs in the other incubator where chicks were all ready hatching. Well the four eggs...
