Black Sex Links

[krharvey44]

I recently bough some Black Sex Links from TSC. We were looking for hens. It looks like all the ones we received have white spots. I called the store this morning and the gentleman I talked to said he put the black sex links out and that they were all females. However, after doing some research it looks like all male BSL actually have the white spots on them. Do these look like males?

Any yellow or white spot on top of head are male for sure when it comes to black sex links - female should have no spot at all.
Based on your pics you have two male chicks.

Thanks that is what I thought. Actually all of the BSLs have spots.

Do you mind having roosters? Also, can you go back to the store and switch them out for other breeds? Perhaps a red sex link?

Actually all of the BSL have white spots. I am going to check with the store to see if they will swap them.
