Here to learn about breeding and sex linked combos :)

[French]

Hey there! New to this site and have a flock of 20+ With the following roosters
- Black Australorp
- French Black Copper Moran
- Pearl White Leg Horn
- And the freebee, that somehow against all odds survived 5 years, Sicilian butter cup.

For hens I have

BFCM
Whiting true blues
Rhode island Reds
Black Australorp
Dominique's
and some black sex links

The goal here is to find more info on creating sexlinks with the chicken I have to grow the flock and possibly earn a little $ on the side with hatching eggs to pay for feed Have a good day

Welcome to BYC! Here is a link to a page with some good information on chicken genetics.

I'm guessing BFCM is Black French Copper Marans? In which case, your Dominiques are the only hens that will give you sex linked chicks. Good news, they'll give you sexlinks when paired with any of your roosters except the leghorn. White hides other colors the bird may be carrying, so your leghorn rooster could be carrying the gene for barring. I'm not familiar with the genetics of pearl white leghorns specifically, but leghorns are usually dominant white, which will interfere with sex linking the chicks because one copy of dominant white will produce a mostly white bird with specks of the base color (usually black) and you can't see white barring on a white bird.

Hello and welcome to BYC, It's great to have you here with us.
I don't have any knowledge on breeding but many people here do so I'm sure you'll get some help
