Would this hybrid still be sex linked?

So instead of buying a couple more egg layer chicks this spring at Tractor Supply. I let my game hen hatch out a dozen eggs that my Golden Comets had laid. Now with my game chicks I can tell the gender as soon as they hatch since all the female chicks have the chipmunk stripes. I was curious if that would be the case with the hybrids I’ve got hatching out(Father: Game Rooster, Mother: Golden Comet). So far three have hatched out with 1 having the chipmunk stripes and the other two blonde. However, one of the blondes has a more buff color on their back area. Thanks for the help!

Ya that won't hold true for those hybrid chicks. Comets are hybrid birds so you're basically breeding a mixed breed to another breed and producing more mixed breeds.
What's your game male chicks look like at hatch? Curious how you're making sex links there with females being striped.

The males come out completely blonde or they have a little black stripe just on the top of their head.
I’ll get a picture shortly when the rooster decides to calm down. I do have a picture of the game hens though
