New Hampshire are sex link if im not mistaken

How are they sex link? (Feels stupid asking, lol)

I'm thinking all 3 of mine are pullets, this one is the biggest of the 3, but I didn't know if they develop compared to BO's - here are a couple pics of my 4 week old BO's that are (IMO) cockerel's -

New Hampshires are NOT sex linked. Only Red sex links and Black sex links are. If New Hampshires were sex linked, they would be made from two parents that are different breeds. New Hampshires are produced by a New Hampshire hen and a New Hampshire rooster. I want to know how you got the idea that they are sex linked..
