Help id gender on possibly sex linked chicks.

Honestly, without knowing who the parent stock is, I wouldn't say they were sex-linked. If you want to breed sex-linked birds, separate out who you're wanting to get fertile eggs from and hatch that way. With a mixed flock, there's no guarantee that these are sex-linked. If there are other males, these could be their chicks.
From the looks of the two chicks I think it's the RIR/light sussex rooster crossed with the cream legbar.
 
So i have a rooster that is a RIR crossed with a light Sussex and a cream legbar hens but there's other breeds, roosters and hens but I'm positive that they are the parents. Another rooster it should be sex linked anyway?
There are 2 chicks, the dry one is over a day old whole the wet one is just under a day old.
And does anyone else has a RIR cross cream legbar as my roo cross looks to show mainly the RIR with Columbian markers on the end of his hackles.
Chick #2 has a tiny headspot, so this would probably be a chick from the Legbar mother.
 
Results from crossing RIR male to Light Sussex Female.

That's is what the father should be. The rooster is a RIR cross light sussex. But he is big, red with columbian markers on the end of his hackles.
The males of that crossing are supposed to be Gold Split to silver. Makes them lemony.

Are you sure you have the correct breeds?

Here are the parents. And the last pic is of the dad when he was 6 weeks. He has those markers that leads me to believe that he is light sussex cross RIR, we also have a light Sussex rooster from the same flock that looks like a light Sussex but has leakage at the saddle

That looks Buff Columbian.

I don't see the other pictures.
