Black sex link same chactoristics?

[chick_magnet]

I bought a few black sex link and all of them have different coloring. some have black feet some have red, some have red-orange chest and some have all black chest. some have white dot on their head and some don't

On black sex links, the white dot on the head means it's a male. Those without the dot would be females.

Do you know what the rest of the different characteristic means

Black sex link females will usually have brown leakage in their chest. It can vary in how much.

Are you sure they are all black sex links? Can you post pictures, it would make it easier to tell.

The barred one on the right is a rooster. The one on the left I can't see well enough to tell sex. (it could be a sex link male, or a cuckoo marans - not barred rock they have yellow legs.) In the bottom picture, the black one is a rooster, and not a sex link.

Some feed stores will take them, or you can put them on craigslist.
