Do we have Broilers?!

[happychick73]

10 weeks ago, we got 10 chicks and two ducks. apparently we bought 4 "golden sex links", but I think that they might be broilers. They have grown very fast, their not "golden", and we looked up broilers and they are very similar. at first, we thought they had cocci but none of the other birds were getting it and they weren't getting better with corid. one of them died and another had to be killed. if you know anything about this or broilers, please comment below, thanks!

Oh my...we used to raise broilers and those look suspiciously similar.

Do you know if they roost? Because they are always sleeping on the ground.

They're Cornish cross birds... broilers.
