I can't tell the SLW and dominque eggs apart so i figured i'd hatch them all off.  Also, what would a Golden Comet x dominique look like??  Would some traits go sex link??

			<description><![CDATA[ I have a full-grown Barred Rock rooster (not sure of his age, but he's mature) and 6 pullets (RIRs, Buffs, and Black sex links) that are about 14 weeks old.  I kept the pullets separated from the Rooster until they reached 11 weeks, since he was so much bigger than they and I didn't want to risk him pecking or trying to mate.  They've been in the same coop for the past 8 weeks, but in a separate enclosure.  Recently, I've allowed them to mix in the pen and range when I can keep an eye out.... ]]></description>
