I did the same thing only reversed. EE hen with BSL roo. The babies are amazing and all are sooooooo different!!!! Eggs are the olive drab color, excellent, early layers. Strong, hardy chicks. It is an amazing combination!!! I also have a couple of babies that are EE roo crossed with BTWJB hen. They are the cutest, funniest little things!!! I also crossed an EE hen with a Golden Campine roo. Got two babies that just look like an EE. One was killed by a hawk at about 12 weeks old.

The other is now a wonderful layer of really pretty green eggs. I need to dig out some pics of all them. I have found EE crosses to be some of my favorite mixed breed birds. They are just so strong. I always joke the EE eggs would be fertile even without a rooster. I have hatched 100% of all I have set.

Sounds like adding a sexlink production bred might be the way to go. Maybe I'll add a hen to my flock!
