Hello! I crossed my RIR roo with my light Brahma Hen, and when the chicks hatched, I attempted to sex them based off from all the red sex-link information I've seen online about the cross. Now that the chicks are getting a little older, I'm worried that I was wrong about one. I was wondering if anyone had photos of RIR x Light Brahma roosters? Various ages would be preferred if possible but just the fully feathered rooster would be great! Thank you to anyone who can help!
EDIT: Photos of a nale and female chick next to each other could also help if nobody has adult photos.

You might just want to post photos of your chicks. Males should be light colored, almost white, and females should be redder in color.
At the moment the chicks two chicks I selected as female are the same reddish color, however their feathers are growing in at different lengths and slightly different colors. Is that normal for pullets of cross breeds? I can't get photos right now but I'll see is I can photograph what I'm talking about later.

Every chicken has a different growth speed and they will replace their down in different places than the other chicks.

That will help.
