Five Weeks New

[JCard9]

Hi everyone! We are five and a half weeks into our new adventure with our six chicks: Brynn-Dilly, Molly Mae, Millie Mo, Chantilly, Lace, and Sherlock. Brynn-Dilly is our topic of discussion lately. I've been told she is BSL with heavy leakage. Any thoughts/opinions?

Hi and welcome to BYC. I hope the breed experts can help you out.

What color are her shanks (legs) and feet?

This picture is older but hopefully it helps.

It's been 15+ years since I've had Black Sex-links, but I'm pretty sure their legs were darker than that. Like dark slate/black? I don't remember what color the chicks had. Maybe they were yellow/orange and darkened? The males had lighter legs I think...

This is the "other BSL" that came home at the same time. Also an older pic but shows the dark legs you mention.

Hi and welcome. I am about the same weeks in as you and my flock has grown from 5 to 8, they are very addicting.

Well, tomorrow is week ten and I'm still not 100% sure what little Brynn-Dilly-Dilly is. Here are some updated pictures:
