Nothin wrong with them links Richie! Care to share the recipe?
 Chicken Breakfast Sausage

 2 lbs. Chicken Thighs fine ground

 1/2 Salt Pork ( skinless) fine ground

 1/2 lb. salt pork

 1 1/2 tsp. salt

 1 tsp. black pepper
 
 1 1/2 Tbs. Ground Sage

Dan the salt pork I am going to replace with pork fat.It seemed to make it a little salty.

Looks tasty. Why add any fat at all? I use skinless thighs and have never had a fat issue. I will occasionally add some of the skin in if the mix looks a bit dry. Have you tried Fassett's (Pop's) breakfast sausage seasoning? It's spot on good. I do add garlic to the sausage mix though.

I used the pork fat just to see if it would brown better,my Italian Chicken sausage does not get as brown as I like.Fassett's (Pop's) breakfast sausage seasoning. I have not tried this.

Looks great from here!  Your links look good as well.

If you like using the salt pork, try a small batch with the salt pork, but don't use the other salt called for in the recipe.  Do a test patty and then adjust from there.
 
Looks good too me! The linking looks very uniform. I've never stuffed breakfast sausage because I always mix it into omelette but that might be a nice change.
 
Looks great. Where did you get you sheep casings?
I found a place a few miles from my house.They supply stores,I asked if they did online business, NO was the reply.
