Nope both are considered (gold based) gene and the SLW is (silver based) this will make good sex-linkable by color of the chicks at hatch most probly good layers too if you use production/hatchery types as breeders, + the added heterosis/hybrid vigor from the results of crossbreeding.

you people should be ashaimed of yourselves, now I have to buy more chickens and this all started me looking at auto sexing, did some reserch, think I figured it out and now even more chickens are needed, that means more coops, more feed and maybe even another incubator

for shame for shame for shame

there gonna get me in trouble, a couple of months ago the wife came home to find I had bought another harley while she was at a church function and I am still in hot water over that one, when I told her I was mentaly creating chickens, I got the oh boy, how much is this going to cost, so I would like everybody to donate to the new dog house I am building before I start on my new project, it will have three bedrooms a den, a man cave with wifi, cable tv and a beer cooler, so if you donate enough you can come over for the superbowl

I think I'm catching on to this. Here's my plan and a question. I'm thinking about a Buckeye rooster over Silver Laced Wyandotte hens. If I understand what I've read, the chicks will be chipmunk patterned with the females showing gold or red in the non-stripe areas and the males being gold to white in the same areas. Am I right on that?

My other question is what the chickens from this particular cross would look like. I had a couple of commercial red sex-links that I was very fond of. They were great layers, very mild mannered birds, and their bright red coloring was very attractive. I've got a couple of Buckeye breeders near me, and from the pictures I've seen, a deep mahogany rooster would be an attractive animal to have around. I also love the look of Silver Laced Wyandotte. If I could have some Wyandotte hens and a Buckeye rooster that would throw pretty and productive red pullets, I would be a happy chicken farmer.

not sure what they would like, but they will have some cool combs, peaXrose.
