Well went to TSC to get some Red & Black Sex Links and they were out of the Reds so I got 4 Black Sex Links and 2 other "pullets" that I'm not sure what they are. They have a little darker striped down their back but they don't have the lighter colors than the others do!! I've tried looking at allm the chick pics I could find but I didn't see anything like them. Can they still be a black sex link with just different coloring?? They have a black wash down their legs!!

My first thought when I saw that photo was that the 4 "black sex links" look a lot like Silver Laced Wyandottes. Unfortunately I don't have a good photo of mine at this age last year. I went out to Feathersite and looked at photos. I still think these 4 look like SLW and the other 2 black ones look like black sex links. I have only raised two SLW and no black sex links. I definitely am not an expert. Someone else more knowledgeable will probably speak up. In the meantime you might want to look at the chick photos on Feathersite.
 
Though most Australorp chicks show more white down feathers, you may have those too.

mmmm.... I'll have to do that thanks!!! I wouldn't be suprised if they aren't because the lady made a comment about sex link Wyandottes. Of course me know knowing about all breeds went and researched and couldn't find anything like that. So when I went back and told her that she said I don't know that's what the invoice said. Now she might have just thought the SL stood for sex link becuase they had the red & black sex links too!!

Thanks bunches for your help.
