Sex Links Bred together

[Mr Oviraptor]

What if you breed a black sex link Rooster to a black sex link hen?

 

[I Like Turkeys]

The chicks will not be sex-linked. Assuming these sex-linked birds were of barred origin crossing, and the male is barred, he will pass it on to chicks of both sexes at a 50% ratio. Not sex-linked in the slightest, and chicks will need to grow out as normal to tell sex.

You’ll get chicks that are black with leakage, black with barring, red with a black tail, or red with barring. You may also get silver, silver barred, and black with silver leakage if the rooster has a copy of the silver gene.

Are they homemade sex links? What breeds did you use if so?

 

[Mr Oviraptor]

Do you have a picture of the sex link rooster?

 

[Mr Oviraptor]

Do you have a picture of the sex link rooster?

No, But he looks just like a Black Star Rooster and the Hens look just like Black Star Hens

The reason I want to see a picture is to see if he inherited a silver gene from the barred rock bantam hen. If he did, he will have white or yellowish leakage, and if he didn’t, he’ll only have red leakage.

Also, since he and your hens carry mottling, about 1/4th of the offspring will be mottled.
