Barring from non-barred parents.

[Jferlisi]

So im kinda wondering cause of the whole black sex-linked and all, about my chicks. The mother was a black silkie and the father was a white frizzled cochin bantam. I hatched out 3 chicks and one is black and the other two are barred.Could they be sex-linked? Im a little stumped here. Any info would be helpfull. =D

White can and does hide anything/everything, so the barring would have come from him, and is passed on to both genders. Since all the chicks did not get barring, he must have only one copy.

Anyways, since the barring came from papa, it is not sex-linked. The barred chicks could both be male, both be female or one of each. Likewise for hte non-barrwd one--it could be either gender.
