funny in a way.....I have Silver Laced Wyandotte Roos and a RIR pullet....what happens if they cross? Just messy mutt chicks?

I also have been told I have Golden Sex-Link pullet chicks, I also have some black sex-linked chicks....what if my SLW Roos get to them? Just messy mutt chicks?

I also have and Easter Egger?

Very helpful to me.

I have a GLW roo over 2 GLW and 2 SLW hens. Now, if the GLW hens weren't in there, could I expect that the chicks I just hatched would be sexed linked and the silvers all male? Cool if that is how it works.

ok....with a Silver Laced Wyandotte Rooster and these hens: Rhode Island Red, golden sex-link, black sex-link, white leghorn and an easter egger....what am I going to get?

Question- I have a silver EE rooster over my girls, and the crosses that came from my EE and my RIR pullet are curious. 6 of them are yellow with three parallel black stripes on their back and a line and a dot on their heads. Two of the same crosses look like the reddish chick in the first post, with just a bit of markings on them. Is this a form of sex linking? Also- my silver rooster has produced a LOT of silver babies. We have two partridge EE hens and the babies from that mix are nearly 75% silver.

There is a breeder who does that cross and he calls it a Cinnamon Queen and they are a very attractive looking chicken. I'll see if I have a picture. They don't look like the pics on the internet.

What happens if you reverse the gender in the sex link mating?
Example: Red Rock
instead of Barred Rock over a RIR, a RIR over a Barred Rock?

Hmmm, very interesting. I have Barred Rock Hens - black, and I know someone with a couple of americauna roosters. But they are multi-colored, brown being one of their colors. More study required.....
