2013 TSC in Indy - What Breed are these?

[Thunder Chicken]

​

Can anyone tell me what breeds these are? I bought four brown and 2 white at TSC in Greenwood, IN at the end of March. I think they said the white ones are Leghorn but not sure. I have looked at pictures her and the brown one looks like Red Sex-link to me but I have no idea what that means, lol. If you need more pictures, let me know and I will happily take more at any angle you need.

Yes, the red one is a red sex-link. They go by different names...Red Stars, Cinnamon Queens, Gold Comets. Generally they are a cross between a Rhode Island Red or New Hampshire Red rooster and a white hen...a Delaware for instance. They are great birds!!

Youre correct. red sex link & leghorn. Sex links are essentially a cross breed. I think Red sex-links are a cross between a Rhode Island Red or New Hampshire rooster and a White Rock

Thanks for your replies. When I saw the list of breeds it looked like hundreds and some looked the same to me. I am sure they didn't call them sex-links at the store. Now it makes sense to me.

Red sex link and white leghorn.

It turns out the the white ones are not Leghorns. I started getting brown eggs and did some more searching. Mine have red ear lobes and look more like White Plymouth Rocks now.

TSC sells red sexlinks, comets and rocks.....sometimes at Rural king you can get black sexlinks or easter eggers
