What will my mixed chicks look like??

[BellsCluckers]

I will be having an incubation hatch tomorrow or the day after! So excited! I have an Australorp roo... what will my chicks grow to look like. Dominique hen, Easter Egger hen, Buff Chantecler/Orpington (Mix) hen. If you have pictures of these mixes please do show!!!

I'd say most of the chicks would be black in any of those mixes, though the barred gene of the Dominique hen could show.

Agreed; black will be the predominant color in the chicks.

Your Dominique hen will give you black sex links. Any chick with a white head spot will be male. Problem is you won't be able to tell the female bsl chicks from the other hens chicks. The bsl females will mature pretty much black. The buff hens chicks will likely mature a buff/black mix. The Ee are wild cards as far as color genetics, but the extended black from the Aussie father will carry over quite a bit.
