The standardized EE

[redrooster99]

Breeding the silver girl to any golden type color will get you sex-linked offspring. (including Speckled Sussex) Depending on who you breed her to, you will or won't know who's male or female until their feathers come through though. That girl there, since your male looks to be columbian as well, you'll get offspring that look like your silver girl and your current EE male or more like her and more males that look like your EE male. Is your EE rooster full on silver or does he have any yellow or reddish coloration on him?

He is mostly silver I believe maybe a little dirty tint.

For now it's safe to say he's silver. So, offspring with him and anyone will end up being silver girls and golden boys with the exception of some silver boys from the silver girl. The golden males will be pretty pale, though. So - Females may end up either looking like your current female or like a silver Ameraucana. Pretty much a normal silver duckwing female. Females with the columbian gene will grow up to be like a messy silver columbian. (little bits of excess black on the back) I've got pics umm somewhere around of some EE's that look like what I'm describing.

What if I added light Sussex would I get Sussex lolling ees

 

[redrooster99]

I mean looking

Does he have the barring gene

 

[Illia]

Yeah. They're silver columbian, so you'd get more silver columbian EE's, especially with your boy already being silver and carrying at least one columbian allele.

Does he have the barring gene

Nope.

 

[redrooster99]

Oh then why does he have the bars

 

[Illia]

It's just a young plumage thing. It will disappear soon. Females have what seems to be barring like that too, you just don't notice as much because it's mixed with brown, and no one assumes brown + black barred appearance is actually barred. If he was barred, he wouldn't have any solid or blotched black feathers. Anywhere he'd have black, it would be barred instead. Usually gray+black barring, not white+black.
