I have two black sexlinks and I do so love them too!! I wouldn't mind one bit . They are only 3 weeks old. So far no red. The first one has some white (just a little bit) and the second one is still jet black everywhere. I'll have to post more pics as they get bigger!
I got these from someone who said they were mixed breeds by any of these breeds... RIR, BO, Americauna, leghorn, BR, and Jersey Giant. The first is much bigger than the second. Both hatched same day. Any guesses what each cross could be? #1 the larger of the two
#2 same chick's feet
#3 second...

I have two Roos that I handled their whole lives. One is still great and sweet he's about 4 months older than the one who is attacking. I'm not convinced handling matters. My grandma raised chickens for over 40 years and handled all. Growing up, there was always only one Roo we watched out for...
I have a black white crested polish that is 34 wks old. She laid her first and Only egg 2 months ago and none since. Nothing seems to be wrong at all. What's happening?
So I have 10 Silkies being delivered here soon. I have never had a silkie and have heard 50/50 on the topic of the Roos crowing. Half seem to say the Roos cock-a-doodle while half say..... They don't. For anyone who has raised Silkies, could you please let me know..... Thanks SOOO much!
Not sure if the babies I just got have a cold?? I can kinda hear a snotty sound in their chirps and one just sneezed on me? What can I do before this gets worse? They do have probiotics and vitamins in water and are on medicated feed. Also under heat lamp.
