Well I have so far only 3 consistently females, my other buff is a true buff orpington so she doesn't count,and the other 2 haven't shown any real black feathers as I thought they would.You may be the judge however. I think this one is a boy but those black feathers on it are strange since my only black hens are the ones that produced the sex links above.

Yes, those are pullets from the original cross.. those are very strong genes the buff orp has

Yeah he had very strong genes,did you think the third pic is a pullet too?

That chick is a cockerel, since he is gold that means that the mother is gold based, which is the female with gold leakage.


Edit.

Seems like so far only the males have inherited the pea comb from EE, leaving the pullets with single comb and with about 3% chance of laying blue/green eggs
