So are Welsummer hens Gold/-? I assume that red sexlink hens are that too? And how about Leghorns?

How can you tell whether a bird is silver/silver or gold/gold (for females)? Is it like a one size fits all kind of thing? Or is it harder to tell on some birds?

We are clogging up the thread. I will send you a pm.

Here is an over-exposed photo. Might show her eye better.

Since you breed a lot, it would be cool to track the different iris colors that pop up.

Oh. Thats interesting! I would have to breed my black eyed hen one day then.

Poppy is the only one out of that hatch with brown eyes.

I think its weird how a brown-eyed girl came from 2 orange (or bay) eyed parents. It means it has to be recessive then, right? I will post pictures of her soon.

I really like the red! Was it you that had the albino chicken?

All except brown. Want to see what you classify as bay and red, etc.

Do you have pictures? I seem to only have orange, brown, and black eyed chickens.

It seems to be quite the mystery everywhere...interesting for sure!

Could you explain "eye color genetics"? Asking because it seems like green eyes (in chickens) are more rare. Also because I got a brown-eyed girl from orange-eyed parents. So just curious.

Love your new profile picture!

Supposedly. The thing I wouldn't be able to tell you is whether or not its easy to see. I know that it may be harder to spot for specific breeding pairs. ANY non-barred male crossed with ANY female with barring will result in a sexlink. I just don't know which breeds with express it BETTER. ALL...

Yes, barring is sexlinked. Males will be barred, which should mostly be easy to tell right at hatch.

Males will be barred, females will not. All will have yellow skin. That's pretty much all I know. Curious to see what he says.
