Can this happen? Because it did.

Hatching byms from a chocolate rooster and some if my free ranger girls.
They're hatching now and the first one out was from a salmon faverolle hen.
It's chocolate. (If mauve is possible then it could be that too but I'm not sure what the outcomes are.)
The other hen's eggs will hatch out sexlinks, multiple colors, but I don't know much about the salmon color and how genetics work for it so I've got to no clue what to expect.

A couple pictures of some of the faverolles and the chocolate orpington boy:

And the chick:

What's the question or the mystery?
That chick is also sexlinked and female.

the question is whether or not chocolate is possible- Apparently so since I got it. I would like too know other outcomes to though and percentage.
So the salmon and chocolate is also sexlinked then? (I like this a lot, pretty cool that all my hens will produce sexlinked birds with this guy)
I questioned the chocolate because I assumed salmon would give me an odd colored chick who would have leakage when older. (Because salmons have such a unique color to begin with.)

Ya but the rooster is extended black that's diluted to chocolate. His extended black will cover a lot of patterns the hens may have.
I agree many of the crosses will end up with leakage as they grow.

Agreed pullet and very possible. All pullets will be chocolate from this cross and all cockerels should be black.

I guess the dilution makes sense
Two of the eggs in this batch are from my crele penedesenca, her eggs should give sexlinked chicks too right? What colors will those be?
(I read that a barred hen has the chance of producing Chocolate split cuckoo cockerels, would crele work the same way?)

As these guys are hatching I'll have more and more questions.
Here's the next one:
Blue and splash hens and a chocolate rooster won't give you blue females correct? Only mauve and chocolate for blue and chocolate for splash-
Boys will be blue split from splash and black/blue split for blue?
I'm pretty I know this, just double checking- (I've got a blue in the incubator from one of those two colors)

I also had one hatch from a black sexlink-
I would think it would work the same way as black would but since they come from barred hens and red roosters, is it different? If so how different.
The chick is black (And if it matters (don't think it does) it has that weird feather condition that makes down look knotted and fragile.

Blue hens will give chocolate or mauve pullets and black or blue cockerels. Cockerels will carry a chocolate gene.
Splash hens will give mauve pullets and blue cockerels that carry one chocolate gene.

Alright guess I knew that.
