I just bought 2 hens that were supposed to be australorp but look more like sexlink to me. I also wanted a rooster so i could get eggs to hatch. the only one he had available was a nice rir. i'm happy with my purchase but heres my question. What will the offspring turn out like? anyone done this before?
 
If you cross your black sex-link hens and a Rhode Island Red rooster what you should get is black chicks. As they get older they might start getting some red showing through..
