here is "mama banty and the chix" ...

couldn't get any closer to get a better pic, mama is protective and chicks are active nonstop
as you can see, mama is a banty, I suspect you'd dub her "silver"; head white shading through lacing to black
possibly EE in her ancestry; earlobes white, legs kind of dirty yellow, halfway between yellow and gray (willow?)
papa is my avatar, though pic doesn't show well, his legs are YELLOW not brown nor gray
four chicks are pale yellow, yellow legs, wings are barred cream and brown; five chicks are dark auburn with wings gray barred with darker brownish gray, legs are brownish gray also
my question, do the colors indicate the sexes .. in other words, is this another sort of sex-link (since mama is silver, papa is gold ) ?
