They are and a pretty docile breed. They were the my youngest that started laying at about 19 weeks old!!

Thanks! She's my favorite Amberlink I have, not to mention the friendliest.

interesting thread. im considering trying some amberlinks. ive always liked a white chicken but wanted brown eggs. so this cross may be the answer.

id say there is no white leghorn in this hybrid cross..going by the pics posted......thats just making a visible assumption of course.

and with any sexlink bird. you dont think a hatchery is really using pure parent X pure parent stock??? course not. my money is placed on both parent stocks are already crossed hybrids. bred to produce the known modern sexlink fowl we all have. thats why the sexlink hybrids wont breed true. to much genetic "soup" in the parent stock already. we could be dealing with a six way cross MINIMUM right off the bat with the F1 generation.

Here's a few pictures of mine I got at Tractor Supply last Spring.

If your looking for nice cold hardy laying breed I would recommend these.

I've even got a triple yolk egg from them once.
