Sex link ????? Barred male x EE hen

[bald k9]

Hello im alittle confused, if you breed a barred pure bred rooster to an EE hen, wouldyou get the male and female chicks sexlinked? could you tell the male and females apart at one day? Or does the EE has so many different genes it wouldnt work like that? thanks

No. The barred one has to be the mother. Barred males yield all barred chicks.

Barred FEMALE x Easter Egger male = sex-linked offspring.

And actually, Easter Eggers hold less of a jumble of genes than people think. Most are just e+/e+ and Co/Co. With of course gold vs silver too.
