I bought 2 of the black commercial chicks at TSC which i believe are black sex links and both are supposed to be pullets but one makes me think now that it could be a Roo. what do you think?
Chick #1 Is this one a roo

x2 That is what sex linking is all about, being able to see the difference in a huge, obvious way. The roos of the BSL are extremely close to general appearance to the Barred Rock half of his heritage. Soon, your pullets will show some of the RIR half of the heritage by bleeding rusty red through their breast feathers.
 
thanks i was hoping it wasnt a rooster. Jason
 
Sexlinks are easy until the chicks get mixed into other bins. But, sl boys have a headspot, and our TSC knew the boys on sight.
 
One of my RSLs gave me a fright until someone pointed out that roos would be white.
