Looks like you have a red sex link roo and black sexlink or australorp hens. I'm not sure how thos genetics work. It's not as simple as black+white.

Roo is white and hens mostly black.
Based on the photos:

Definitely some black chicks, probably half or more of the chicks will be black. When they grow up, they may have some red leakage (like the hens do) or some white leakage.

Probably some chicks that grow up to be colored about like the father.

Maybe some chicks that grow up to look similar to the father, but with gold rather than the silver (white) in the coloring (maybe, but maybe not. I can't tell for sure whether any of your chickens are carrying the gold gene or not.)

I wasn't sure if the rooster is Red Sexlink, or if he is Columbian Rock. He has more yellow tones than I would expect for a Columbian Rock, but not as much red leakage as I would expect for a Red Sexlink.

I agree at least one hen looks like a red sexlink, and at least one other could be an Australorp.
