I have three silkie hens and three polish chicks right now and I believe that i have two cockerels and one pullet. I was wandering if I kept the rooster and hatched out some of the polish x silkie cross eggs if the chicks would be sex linked with dark or light skin?
 
I just read that the silkie has to be the rooster for them to be sex lined. So crossing my polish rooster with my silkie hens wouldn't be sex linked, right?
 
Correct. The rooster needs to be the silkie.

I am an amateur chicken keeper, I picked up some silkie polish cross. two hens and a cock. i have chicks now at 8 weeks. I have done a little bit of reading on sex-link but, not enough to fully understand that the colour of my chick determines the sex.

wonder ing if you could take a look at my film.
