So, i have this chick i hatched out, and i was wondering if it is a sex link or not.
The mom is a Barred Rock, and the Dad is a mix, that is pretty much red in color. (pics below)
The chick hatched out black, with a white head spot, and is a rooster.
First 2 pics are the chick, 3rd pic the Mom is the closest bird, and dad is on the high roost.
Thanks!

Yes
It still needs to be pretty solid and it's easier if they are a darker shade... for example not a white or laced sire... as far as I know. :pop
that is understandable. I guess I meant technically. Of course a white bird would be indistinguishable from a white bird with white barring... :)
 
Yes, that's correct. :highfive:
Yep, you have a sex link.
Any barred female crossed to a non barred male will result in a sexlink
Beautiful sex link!!:D
I call them barred sexlinks...i also raise them here as a utility bird and love them they are awsome...
Thanks so much! This happened by accident. I wasn't even thinking about it at the time.
