Stumbled Across a Sex Link cross!

[Brahma Chicken5000]

All of the chicks hatched with chipmunk stripes. There is barring in the pullet’s feathers. I’ll get a picture when I get home.

I'm most curious on... how did you get largefowl Silkies? Crossbreeding? Buying one? Really poor extra large "bantam" Silkie?

Live poultry markets sell large fowl Silkies as many Asian cultures like the dark meat and the birds are sold by the pound

All of the male chicks have light skin and all of the female chicks have dark skin.

Yes I was aware of the choice of meat in the culture. Not expecting to sell any of them, we sold all of our Silkie (regular bantams) cockerels to some local Hmong for five dollars each, because we didn't care if they were going to be eaten. Which of course they were. Happy moment for both of us.
I hadn't realized they had developed a largefowl version. Obviously not in my region. I had always thought it was a good idea because I wanted to try Silkie.

That's your sex link genes with these chicks.

Ya but if it was a sex link to dilute the stripes it would be a barred cockerel not the pullet.
Your pullet has pattern barring not the sex link barring.

Would I be able to recreate this sex link cross by breeding a Silkie cock to hens with yellow or pink legs?

I understand what @Brahma Chicken5000 is thinking although I’m not convinced either..

I see partridge colored birds which are always a different color between the sexes.
