I crossed out a Rhodebar rooster with some hatchery RIR hens. I recall that the autosexing ability was passed on to the females and they were concidered Rhodebar however the males were not that first generation because they lacked the baring from their mother. I recently crosed a White Leghorn Roo over my Rhodebar hens in order to obtain a amberlink type of chicken that could be feather sexed also. Could be several reasons I can think of but the feather sexing did not work out so I have a few of the amberlink pullets and was woundering if this cross made these females auto sexers since the mothers are Rhodebars or does the rooster / hen cross have to be the other way? Tried looking through the forums to find this info. Im sure its in there. someone direct me. thanks
