Your chick with the white spot...
They may or may not be able to be wing sexed. How do you know your rooster is a black sex link? Is he black? Red ? Barred? Your yellow chicks are probably just recessive whites.
That one little Birchen was just hatched so give it some time. You are probably seeing yolk from just being hatched. If it doesn't make it you will get the next one that hatches. But it does take them a day or two to learn to walk on those stilts they have for legs.

DePhane, it was such a pleasure meeting you and your husband. I am excited about my mosquito fish and I hope you enjoy those chicks. That white showgirl has been one of my favorites since it hatched. Those little Modern games are the cutest chickens ever! I would love to grab lunch with you if...

You are correct that there are no bloodline requirements for chickens. The Standard of Perfection lists characteristics that a bird of a certain breed must have. They further break them down to color variations for varieties of the breed. I have never seen a hatchery Ameracauna that met breed...
