Notes
Breeding of Andalusian Blue should yield (on average) the following results;
Blue X Blue = 50% Blue, 25% Black, 25% Splash
Blue X Splash = 50% Blue, 50% Splash
Blue X Black = 50% Blue, 50% Black
Splash X Splash = 100% Splash
Splash X Black = 100% Blue
Black X Black = 100% Black
Remember, the averages are based on the lifetime of the birds
and very susceptible to Murphy's Law ;)

Just a couple of things to note;
* Blue silkies from true andalusian birds can range in the shade of blue;
from a lighter, medium shade of blue, to a darker blue.
* Andalusian never produces blues so dark you can not distinguish
them from black birds easily. If you have blues you mistake for black
you have something else going on underneath them.
