Crossing Blue Ameraucana to Bielefelder

[Lhoward42]

Can you cross Blue Ameraucana to Bielefelder and create sexlinked chicks ?

I don't think so. @MysteryChicken

If the hen is Bielefelder, yes. A Bielefelder hen has one copy of barring gene and only gives it to their son. The chicks with head dots are boys. Although it's hard to see the head dots on light colored chicks. But a Bielefelder male has two copies of barring gene, so he cannot generate sexlinked chicks.

Yes, if the rooster is the Ameraucana, & the hen a Bielefelder.
