My red sex linked seems to have white earlobes. (She hasn't started laying). Shouldn't they have brown earlobes?

Red Sex Links typically have red earlobes like their parent breeds. However some of these Red Sex Links, while primarily a red gene roo cross x a silver gene hen, have been refined over the years by breeding a little White Leghorn into them as well in an attempt to boost the laying rate even more (Isa Browns are an example), and it could be that on occasion the white earlobe of the Leghorn may appear in a Red Sex Link.
