ISA BROWN CROSSED WITH BLACK AUSTRALORP

[Stormer04]

If I were to incubate the eggs from my ISA BROWN hens with my BLACK AUSTRALORP rooster would I get sex link chicks? I believe that ISA BROWNS are sex link in the first place. I have tried to research into sex links but didn’t find info on this particular case.

You will not. Sexed linked chickens are hybrids, therefore whatever they are bred with will create barnyard mixes. You only get sex linked from crossing RIR roosters / New Hampshire roosters with a predominately white female (such as a Delaware to make a red sex Link or a barred rock for a black sex link). There are other varieties but that’s the jist of it.
