Okay.
Well then, what else can you use for sex links? Because I am working on producing sex linked olive Eggers, and I thought you had to use a barred female to a solid male. I've never heard of any other way??

The OP was wondering if the RIR/white Leghorn cross produced red sex links. The non-white, non-barred male over a barred female results in black sex links. There are also feather sexable crosses too. The link I put in a post earlier in this thread is to a sex link thread, and it lists the various crosses that produce the best results.

Ok! I will check that out. Thanks!

Sorry I can't repost the link at the moment. I can't figure out how to cut and paste on my phone.
