calico breeding

Question
Hi, I was wondering if someone could help me with this. I have a tortie (tortishell) cat that I would like to breed. What color male should I breed her to if I would like calicos in the litter? Will a black and white male and tortie female produce calicos? I have a choice of a red male, black male, or black and white male? Which of the three is the best option to produce calicos if bred with a tortie female? Thank you to anyone who can help.

Answer
I think it is important that you know the background of the female and male pedigree to give a more accurate predition of colour
