Agreed. The white feathers give them away

Amberlinks use the same breeds in their cross as red sex links. But, instead of a red rooster crossed with a silver hen, they’re a cross of a silver rooster and a red hen, which means they can’t be sexed by feather color. However, amberlinks can be sexed by feather growth, aka wing-sexing.
