Black Chicks specifically!

[FullMetalBatch]

Hello! I'm new to BYC and new to raising chickens! I've got 5 chicks that I've been trying to identify online but have special trouble with my black chicks as I can't find anything that looks just like them. Any help would be appreciated!

They're both ladies with black feet, black beaks, a little white on the tush, and neck and a single comb

They could be black sex links.

If you wait a few weeks it should be easier to identify their breed.

Haha I suppose I have no other choice really do I? After looking at pictures of Black Sexlinks, I agree that that's what they look like . We shall see for sure!

Probably black sex links.

Where did you get them? What were they sold as?

X 2 - the most likely answer is BSL, but knowing where they came from will help to narrow that as there are other types they *could* be but many of those are less likely to be found in farm stores, etc where many folks are picking up their chicks this time of year

I got them from Atwood's ranch and home and they were just sold as "pullets" no other information.
