Usually RIR x Rhode Island White. White rocks don't carry dominant white, so they can't be a parent breed to RSLs with white hackles and tails.That’s a black sex link. A red sex link is usually a Rhode Island red x white rock (or white leghorn).
I’ve heard that hatcheries lines of white rock do carry dominant white, but I’ll edit my post, since white rocks are probably not the most common breed used in the cross.Usually RIR x Rhode Island White.
