I am thinking that ,theoretically, if the male gender ES cell are injected and subsequently make it to germ line contribution, the chimera pups tend to be in favor of Male gender type. But, I don't know if it is true, anyone here who is more experienced on this topic can tell me whether I am right or not ?

If the ES cells contributed to germ line, they should be able to convert the gender type of the chimera pups. In another words, good Chimeras should be male.

If ES cells are male, only male chimeras are useful, vice versa.

Which means the sex ratio of chimera pups should tend to be predominantly male?
should

I am having the same problem: some people here said that high agouti combine with distorted sex ratio is usually a guarantee of successful germ line transmission but I am waiting for it to really happen -_

Which cell line are you using ? I saw some literature mentioning that G4 or Sv129 derived line is much more robust and with predictable behavior than C57 derived lines.
combine

Yes,129 is the best strain for gene targeting.
