Barred rock rooster cross. What will babies look like?

[RoostersAreAwesome]

From a local country store. I assumed he was a barred rock. We were supposed to get two blackAustrolorp hens and ended up with two roosters. One we gave away. What do you think he is?

He’s a black sex link. The chicks are from the RIR. If he was a purebred barred rock, all his offspring would be black (with varying amounts of leakage) and barred. Since he’s a cross, he could pass on more colors to his offspring than just black.

I have 2 barred rock chicken that are 3.5 weeks old. Rooster, their father was a barred rock, mother a red shaver. One chick is black and Barred the other is a yellow colour turning white with new feathers with black specs here and there. I am thinking the blacked barred was a male due to behaviour and a slightly larger comb. So I'm not sure how the cross breeding works..... Interested as well.

Hi,
Did it turn out that the yellow/white chick was male? I have chicks with the same chicken breeds and I’m wondering if white means male even when crossed.
Thanks

No the little yellow one turn out to be a female and a great wee layer. Her feather grew out a muddy white colour with black specks. Not a bad looking wee hen
