Mixed Brood Gender and Breed

Its funny how excited as chicken owners we get to find out girl or boy and my red sex links look the same excepts with a few more bald patches but boy do they like to be in charge and protect the little chicks. The whole thing can be maddening!

That is a seriously developed comb! Queenies comb is a fraction of that size, so Im going to stick with pullet (at least until she crows! lol)

Yes, I agree. I love the Red Sex Links because it is just simple! Silver is cockerel, red/brown is pullet. We have a Easter Egger pullet that we thought was a rooster for like five months. About a month ago we realized that she was a hen when we saw her lay an egg! :) We almost got rid of her because we thought she was a rooster and now we are super glad we didn't. She is so sweet!
