Buff Plymouth Rock roo x Barred Plymouth Rock hen??

[MDliving]

Has anyone ever tried this cross? I know it will be a sex-link, but am wondering about the colors and egg production. From what it seems, standard sex-links (red or black) produce more and larger eggs than both of their parent breeds. Is this true for all crosses? Can I see some pictures of your experiments?

Anyone?

You would get sex linked chicks, but doubt you'll have the same higher laying rate as using a NH like normal.

It should be the same as the regular barred rock. Good size brown eggs.
