I raised black sex links, red sex links, and rir's from babies. 30 total. They started laying this past march and I have been getting 25-29 eggs a day! I bought them for the eggs and man am I getting them. I am running out of room to put them! You wont beat these if you want eggs.
they are red sex links... same as red star, cinnamin queen, golden comet....every hatchery calls them something different...central hatchery calls them sil go links...go to centralhatchery.com....they have cheap prices too...
Right, red stars, golden comets, cinnamin queens, red sex-links, whatever you want to call them, they are all red sex-links. A rhode island red roo(you could use a new hampshire red or a production red) and a white hen is used to get all of these but every hatchery uses a different white hen...

For white eggs go with the white leghorn. For brown eggs go with red or black sex links (stars) or rhode island reds. These are the best breeds for eggs and they will lay you a TON!
A friend of mine got permission from a local farmer he knows to pick up some rice around his grain bins that had been spilled and was just going to be wasted. He said we could have as much as we could haul! We went and filled the bed of my truck up TWICE! It is good rice too, nothing was wrong...

I ordered 25 white leghorn pullets from them and they sent me california whites. I called and complained and they said they would send me 25 more for free. The second batch were california whites too! I called them back and told them thanks but someone wasnt doing thier job. They apologized and...
The prices of thier chicks are CHEAP! I thought about ordering some red sex links and RIR's this spring. Anyone ever ordered from them and if so, was it a good experience? I was gonna get some from my local feed store but I thought I could order some from this place and sell some too. What do...
Double R gets thier chicks from a hatchery in New Mexico. They wont tell which one but I think its Privett hatchery. I ordered 25 white leghorn pullets from them in october and they sent me california white leghorns. I called and complained and they sent me 25 more for free and they were STILL...
I need to move my 12 week old RIR's out with my big chickens because I need the room for my stars. They have been on flockraiser and are really big, they have grown sooo much. Eveything that I have read says to wait until 18-20 weeks before I put them on layer but I REALLY need to move them. I...
