I have 3 lavander Auracana pullets 2 exchequer leghorn pullets, 2 SL barnevelder hens, 1 exchequer leghorn cockeral and 1 SL barnevelder roo.

What would the auracana x leghon chicks look like?

What will the auracana x barnevelder chicks look like?

What will barnevelder x leghorn chicks look like?

The first and 2nd generation if possible.

Thanks in advance,

Lavender araucana x exchequer leghorn - black chicks (carrying mottling and lavender but not showing either)
F2 possibilities - black, lavender, black with mottling (exchequer), lavender with mottling
Most F2 chicks will be black, lavender with mottling would be the smallest percentage of offspring

Araucana x silver barnevelder - black chicks with silver leakage or potentially partial silver lacing (carrying lavender)
F2 possibilities - black, black with leakage, partial lacing, double lacing, lavender, lavender with leakage, lavender partial laced, lavender double laced (getting chicks with gold instead of silver is possible in this generation)
Lavender double laced is going to be a very small percentage of potential F2 offspring

Barnevelder x leghorn - black with silver or potentially gold leakage, partial lacing possible too (carrying mottling)
F2 possibilities - black, black with leakage, partial lacing, double lacing, black with mottling, black with mottling and lacing, mottled double laced (potential for silver or gold chicks in this generation)
Mottled double laced will only be a small percentage of potential F2 offspring, most will be black or black with leakage


Since one of your araucanas is really an araucana mix and another is a mixed color (lavender with leakage), expect some of their offspring to vary beyond what I described above.

If you want the most color variation (especially in the first generation), I would cross the araucana with leakage to the barnevelder rooster.
