Is there a color breeding chart out there? I know genetics are WAY more complicated than just SPLASH X BLACK = BLUE. I also know that history plays a factor too, like with the white genes.

I had a white frizzle rooster breed with all my hens:
Gold laced
Yellow/Black
White
Buff
Mille Fleur
Partridge

14 chicks hatched last week, and 11 of them came out black. one is yellow with black flecks, one is light red, and the other is buff yellow. Just wondering if anyone knows what colors they may come out?

Your chicks are probably going to be mostly black; it's probably due to the rooster carrying one or more (E) genes (Known as the extended black pattern gene, and is dominant to practically everything.) and recessive white (c/c). If he were dominant white, some of the chicks would be white. As is, all of the chicks have inherited one recessive white gene, but they're not showing it because it's recessive.

I have no idea what other genes are in play.
