Ok so can someone tell me if I mixed each of these chickens..what the chicks would be.. barn yard mix? Or what? And what color eggs will the chicks lay?

1*New Hampshire Red Rooster+Barred Rock Hen=?
2*New Hampshire Red Rooster+White Leghorn Hen=?
3*New Hampshire Red Rooster+Blue Silky=?
4*New Hampshire Red Rooster+Gold Brabanter =?
5*New Hampshire Red Rooster + Olive egger=?
6*New Hampshire Red Rooster+ Easter egger =?
 
Technically they would all be mixes, however, The offspring from the barred rock and the white leghorn will be sex linked.
With the Barred rock, she can only pass her barring gene onto her male offspring, so, once they start feathering, the males will be barred.
With the white leghorn, the yellow chicks will be male and the reddish tan ones will be female.
 
1) Sex linked. Males will hatch normal barred. Females will hatch black with maybe some red coming in some places.

2) Not sure on white genetics

3) Half should hatch blue and half black. They would have the extra toes and feathered feet but wouldn’t be silky.

4) Chicks would be black patterned red. Some might hatch with some double or single lacing or half Spangled. They would still have a crest.

5) for the olive egger I’m not sure on the appearance of yours but it would lay greenish brown eggs. It would probably appear more brown. Red might appear in chicks

6) Same with #5

Thabk you!! Okay so if I want to sell the chicks what would I lable them as? Just barn yard mix and add what the parents are? And what's fair pricing for them?

1*New Hampshire Red Rooster+Barred Rock Hen= Black sex links.

Statistically:
5*New Hampshire Red Rooster + Olive egger= 50% olive egger, 50% brown egg layer.

6*New Hampshire Red Rooster+ Easter egger = Green egg layer if the hen carries 2 blue egg genes. If she only carries one blue egg gene, 50% of her female chicks will lay brown, and 50% will lay green.

Pea comb dominates single comb. But, IME, that mix results in a "looser or somewhat deranged" pea comb.
