Little momma hatched 8 babies. 5 look like typical barred rock chicks. One is yellow with barred wings, 2 are grey/yellow with barred wings.
My Roos are barred rock or silver wyandotte.
Hens are: barred, buff or sex link.

If you have any "typical barred rock chicks" with a lot of white on their wings, may be barred*barred males.

What sort of sexlink do you have? Red? Black? Silver?

Sorry I wasn't thinking, they are black sex links. The odd 3 are the ones I am curious about what they will look like.

Buff x silver orp will result in birds that are mostly silver, with partial lacing and gold leakage across the shoulder and throat. There used to be some decent pictures of that cross somewhere, but I'm still looking for those. They were pretty good looking. I suspect that your chick with the laced feathers is that cross.

The grey I can see clearly (second pic) looks to be Barred*buff. First post has pics: https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...s-in-first-post-before-adding-content.629715/

The other one I can't see is probably the same, but without looking, I'm not gonna guess.

Thank you so much! The 2 grey ones look alike. Those are really pretty birds (the barred/buff crosses). It would be awesome if my silver got in there somewhere! My barred was the dominant rooster but we no longer have him after he attacked my daughter.
