How old are these and what breed?

[nelson10]

I have 2 pullets of each breed:

How old are they? What kind? What color eggs should I expect?

I don't know what they are but they're beautiful.

Thank you! They are sweet too

You have two Rhode Island Reds (The brown ones) and two black sex links (The dark ones)
Expect brown eggs that are either going to be medium brown or a little darker.
I would guess them to be around 4 weeks old.

Do you know how prolifically they lay?

Those breeds are bred for egg production. If my memory serves me correctly, they lay about 5-6 eggs a week.

Well it looks like I lucked out then...even if they were all wrong about what they sold me! Thanks!

My BSL gave me eggs 28/30 days in the summer and 20/30 in the winter. I miss having a sex link already. After this flock I'll never not have at least 1 black or red star.

And they never go broody!!

are black star the same as BSL?

I was told I was buying one red and one black star pullet (not pictured in this thread) and was excited about that though...
