Breed, Sex ?

I bought two of these at Atwood's. They were in a bin labeled 'Heavies'. I keep bouncing back in forth between, Jersey Giant, Australorps, Black Sex-link pullets, and now maybe Dark Cornish. In the last week they suddenly are way bigger than the others bought at the same time. They were black with black legs, yellow on the bottoms of their feet when young. Now they have some red coming out around their neck area. Here are a couple of photos.



This photo was when they were about 4-weeks old.


Sorry about the resolution. It is about 6-weeks old here. Notice the color around its neck and head.
 
either a a black sex link or a mixed breed need a better picture of the bird to tell and if you have a picture of the chick when it was younger please post it
 
"Heavy" is kind of a loose term. I think most hatcheries apply that to anything that's not an ornamental or Mediterranean breed, so it can be one of several breeds.
