Oh he's gorgeous! Very elegant looking
Silky is dominant, and mating silkies to silkies makes porcupines. They'll have nothing but quills and any feathering they may have open up, will be very brittle and snap off. These birds can't get up off the ground. It's a pitiful thing to see
To get black offspring, mate this guy to a black hen. He himself is a black splash, and I see some bronze in his wings. Although you could mate him to a blue and still end up with some blacks, putting two blacks together will make them all that color. As far as the white, you may have to breed that out of them, depending on what all white genes he and his mate are carrying.
To get white, mate him to a solid white bird. There is a good chance many of the children will be solid white, or it may take two generations from the pair before you have solids. It depends on if he is carrying the recessive white gene.
And for blue bar, mate him to a blue hen. Black is actually blue. It is the spread gene that turns it black. Regardless of the solid color on his wings, he still has a pattern underneath, which is either bar, check, or (although unlikely) barless. If it's JUST blue bars you want (and no checks), then you'll have a better bet with that if you put him with a BB. Even then you could still get checks if dad is a check, because it is more dominant to bar.
