How about these, male,female?

I was under the assumtion that red sex links are created with white leghorns and RIRs, but I may be wrong
Traditionally RIR or NH roo over white rock hens.
Many roads to get there: (from Wikipedia for ease)
  • Black sex-link like "Black rocks" are a cross between unique specially bred hybrid strains of Rhode Island Red rooster (but any non-white and non barred rooster may be used for other black sex-link crosses) and a Barred Rock hen (which carry both extended black and barring genes).
  • Red sex-links are a cross between a Rhode Island Red or New Hampshire rooster and a White Rock (This variety pair is known as a Gloden Comet), Silver Laced Wyandotte, Rhode Island White, or Delaware hen.
White leghorn not normally used as they are dominant white. 😊

Personally I'd wait until they reach 4-5 months before determining what gender they may actually be. The leghorn could be the reason for the largeness of comb, & wattles.
