Highlanders?? What is a Highlander?

[CowgirlHC]

I'm in the market for around 6 additional young birds and I seen an ad for I think it was 60 "Highlander" chickens. I have looked everywhere to no avail. What IS a highlander? I'm probably going to feel really dumb after asking this lol! Thanks!

Hey, this may be a little late, but a Highlander is a sexink mixed back to a RR rooster once. They stay production birds just a little bigger. Red Sexlinks are also called Cinnamon and the black SL are black star's. Most use the cinamon to RR, works the same either way.
