We just hatched 4 eggs. All the same dad (Rhode Island Red) and 1 egg was from a dark Brahma and 3 eggs were from a buff Brahma. Reading up on Sex Links, I learned that RIR Rooster cross with a LIGHT Brahma hen would make for easy sexing in that boys will be yellow and girls will be red. But is that the same rule for dark & buff brahmas? I know there’s science behind it and all that good stuff, but I’m not getting the part about if the males will still be yellow for the buff & dark Brahma offspring? Also, I have included their pictures. All 4 are there but there are 5 pictures because “Simba” has a cool mark on the back of his/her head so she has 2 pics. And finally, what color do my chicks technically count as? Are they more red, yellow, white? They’re just so cute and fluffy- is that a color? Any help greatly appreciated. Here are the pics:
