Hello everyone,
I am trying to find another option for a sex-link cross out of a white egg laying breed. I've had some success in the past with crossing Silkie roosters over Leghorn females, but my source for sexed Silkie roosters has moved. I have had horrible luck trying to purchase them from My Pet Chicken and do not want to go that route again.
I came across some information on a google search that I would like to verify-
Is the California White (California Grey rooster x White Leghorn hen) actually a sex link? Or, is the California Grey breed itself auto sexing?
I had looked into the Flowery 55 breed from Greenfire Farms as an auto sexing white layer, but got feedback from some hatchers that the eggs do not incubate well- and that is what I need them for.
Thank you!
Kate
