Help identifying these brown egg layers

Is a California White a sex link and if so what are the parents?

Not a sex link, they’re a cross of California grey and white leghorn.

The big difference I have noticed is that Austra Whites have white skin and grey-ish to slate legs which makes sense considering their make-up. Since they're crosses between an Australorp and a Leghorn, the skin should end up white since yellow is recessive. (Assuming the Australorp is pure for white skin.) California Whites on the other hand are California Grey and Leghorn and both breeds have yellow skin. It would be quite unlikely in my opinion for her to be an Austra White due to this chick having yellow legs

Now here we are a few weeks later and austra white seems closer? The black spotted one (Dawn) is a brown egg layer, and her legs are definitely taking on more of a slate color.

Could be, australorps can sometimes be impure for the white skin gene. Are you sure she’s the one laying brown?

She’s the only one laying so far and I’ve caught her in the act a few times…

Looks like you were right all along! With those slate legs I have to say Austra White
