Every hatchery calls them different. They're a production breed. Mine were called golden sexlinksI can provide better pics tomorrow. (Don't want to wake them).
And, I feel like a complete idiot... but, when I've looked up Sexlink, it only discusses that they are a mix of chicken breeds. So, I'm not very clear on what they are, temperment, etc..
ISA browns and red sex links are the same breed. Sex links can only be sexed as baby chicks, as they will have a spot on their heads. I don't know what feed store would buy sex linked cockerels, so if the OP does have a cockerel it would be very surprising. Feather sexing is also often inaccurate and only works on day old chicks.I think they could be ISA browns or sex-links. Usually if you see little combs and waddles while they are chicks it it a roo. I'm not sure if they are old enough to tell but you could try feeling for the laying bones in either side of the vent (if there is a gap it is likely a female) or wing sexing (you can look that up) if they are sex-links you can sex them now.
All four of these babies are sweet. They love being held and snuggled. We made sure to handle them daily so that they would be easier to handle later when needed. In fact, when I go outside they all run to the fence as if to yell, "MOMMY!"They are a specific mix of breeds so that when the chicks are born, you can tell by the color of the fluff on their heads which are male and female. They are generally very good egg layers, and can start laying early. Mine aren't flighty at all, and don't mind me touching them.
The more you had raise your chicks the more they will enjoy/tolerate being handled as adults. I only got mine a week ago as adult hens, and they already don't mind me touching them, to the extent that if they're in my way it's hard to shoo them awayAll four of these babies are sweet.

Sex links. Do you have a better picture if the white one? Males are white, females are redThese are the best pics I have of them as chicks. Honestly, the feed store didn't even know how old they were.
