Help with breeds plz

Thanks everyone, I have eggs down from him and bsl's I expect decent layers could I expect some to look like RhodeBars? Have purebreeds chicks for my future breeding lol

Your chicks from that breeding will be a mixed bag. You can't get a sex linked chick by crossing 2 sex linked parents. As far as them looking like Rhode bars, I can't speak to that! What do you have for pure breeds for your future breeding?

Also I have some chicken s that are like rsl at first glance but have a few feathers on their feet and slightly smaller than the sex links . I believe they are rsl X EE as they have olive or green eggs I'm also incubating. Should I expect them to lay brown eggs as they will be I suppose 3/4 red sex link?
Depends on the parents. Even if you set olive or green eggs, if either hen or roo carries only one blue egg gene, that will skew your next generation. My EE roo carries a brown egg gene, as do some of my hens, so I get about 50% blue/green/aqua layers from using him over my flock.

Feathered feet are dominant. Blue egg gene is dominant. Pea comb is dominant. Pea x Rose comb = walnut comb.
 
If they have feathering in their feet then they have either brahma, marans, or Cochin in them.
Yes, I agree, I got a better glance at the picture, doesn't look like full sex link. He is beautiful though! He looks like he has maybe half brahma in him.
 
I had an attack and lost my other buckeye partner , but I have a BR roo and 2 hens and 4 black Australorp and 4 silver laced Wyandottes pullets. Can I get another laced Wyandotte roo to make a 50/50 split in laced coloring like with marans you can make splashes ?
 
I was away a few months and that is when my brother in law got some chickens with the feathered feet, so maybe he has Cochin? I don't see Brahma unless bantam maybe cause they are smaller than the rsl
