I have some turkens, welbars, CA Grey, bbs ameraucana, legbar, and black sex linked EE in with a welbar roo, a male sex linked EE, and a black ameraucana rooster. I incubated a big batch of eggs and gave away all the ones I was pretty sure were male (suspected male sex links) but kept the ones I suspected were female. For the most part I can identify who came from who but there are a couple cool color combos that I'm not sure who they came from. I'd like your input on breed combos and gender.

Here's the first one:

Edit to add: they hatched May1st
 
From the presence of the single comb and the dark legs and feet, I've been assuming it's a combination of either a sex linked EE hen with the rhodebar male or welbar female under the EE sex linked male. Any other combo would have given a pea comb right? How do you get that pattern we're seeing?
 
This chick isn't barred. Being a cockerel, male offspring from a female Welbar would be barred. All offspring from a male Rhodebar would be barred. I would assume he's neither combination. :) This chick is bearded so for sure one parent is. Any ideas of the possible silver parents? :)

My other EEs have such poofy faces I totally missed that scraggly beard lol
 
That first chick and this naked neck chick have the same sort of color pattern. I wonder if it's the result of a black hen being bred by the EE sex link? He is a cross of barred rock and lav ameraucana. I have a black NN and I do have black sex linked EE.

The last interesting one I'm curious about it this EE. It has a straight comb but the fluffy cheeks. It looks like the lighter version of the first bird :rolleyes:
