I would say from what I know about breeding and blues that the male that you 
bred her to had blue in his bloodline somewhere. It is similar with shetland 
sheepdogs which my husband used to breed and that was his take on it.

          has anyone heard of the blue colored gene carrying more genetic 
problems and deformities?  the last litter i had, the one with the odd colored 
blueish girl (magnolia), produced 2 babies.  they were both identical in color 
and size, but the other girl had a cleft pallet and no anus.  she had to be 
euthanized when she was 2 hours old so she wouldnt suffer once her body started 
producing waste. it was awful.  but since then ive heard that blue  chi's have 
more problems with weird stuff like that.  anyone else heard that?  i think 
they said blue and white dachshunds too.  makes me reconsider breeding this 
female again.
