Gold Sexlink pullet or cockerel??????

[purplesquirrel]

I was wondering if some one could help me?

I have a question about a chick of mine that is currently still hatching...

My cockerel is a cream legbar x light sussex, and the hen is a black leghorn x bluebell...(so she's bluebelle shaped body but jet black)

I thought the chick might come out grey or blue or patchy or mottled, but it's come out bright white!
Does that mean it's male? Or is it possible it doesn't mean much other than that was the genes selected?
I was sure it would be black as black is more....dominant?

I have attacked photos of my man and my lady
If anyone has any feedback, I'd be much appreciated, Many thanks

(P.s sorry the black one is so blurred)

It wouldn't be sex linked but I believe it's splash colored not pure white. As it grows in new feathers should start showing blue smudges in plumage.

A lot of people mistakenly think they can breed sex links and get more sex links, I was hoping you weren't one of them! It's not often I hear of people getting eggs from hatcheries.

X2 on that. At least not sex link eggs.

Agreed; it's a cockerel for sure. Sorry. (
