What do you get when you cross a barred rock ro with......

[keesmom]

I have a barred rock rooster and incubating eggs from a cinnamon queen, would anyone know of what the breed name for the chicks?

Mixed breed. If your rooster is your avatar, he may not be a pure Rock. He looks more like a black sex link male.

I have a Barred Rock rooster (mean as shit) mated w/ our beautiful Cochin hen. I incubated the eggs and I ended up with two gorgeous barred rock roos. Absolute gorgeous big birds with great personalities.

Absolutely! I was referring to coloring of Roos when these were mixed.

Interesting I just had a 100 percent hatch 8 egg incubator and now 8 chicks First time all hatched ever. Now I have Barred Rock Roo, mixed with New Hampshire Red, Marran, Amerucanas, Easter eggers and my hens from (Jersy Giat Roo with barred rock hens). I just hope they make good eggs.

If you cross a RIR roo (or any non-barred roo) with a Barred Rock hen you will get black sexlinks, the males will be black with a white spot on it's head & the females will have solid black heads at hatch. I just hatched this cross except the roo was RIR/buff Leghorn interestingly 3 of 5 were black sexlinks & 2 were white (I'm referring to them as being reverse black or white sexlinks) because the male has a solid white head (starting to have ghost barring) & the female has a faint black dot on her head.

I know this is an old post but reading your comment has me puzzled? We have a white leghorn rooster (aren’t white leghorns considered non-barred?) who mated with our barred rock hen and all the babies hatched are white/yellow fluff? None of them are black like you stated? So I’m a little confused, lol. Trying to figure out what our chicks will look like. Any response is helpful! Thank you!
