I cant tell the sex of any of these -can you?...what breed do you think the red and white feathered

I bought the 6 red and white feathered from TSC they said were long island reds...i dont think so...the 4 White leghorns are from TSC also...I was told yesterday there only 1/3 grown...

I have no trained eye at all...yet...on sexing by looking at them...what do you see

all the others in teen chick pen are from NPIP quality breeders

They look like red sex-link pullets based on the coloring / markings. Pure reds have no white feathers.

thank you Chickmagnet..i just can not tell the difference yet in sexing...new info on sex-link for reds...I will remember that

From what I have read, the male red sex-links look totally different than the females (almost completely white with some black in the tail) which makes sexing easier and accurate. I hope this is true, because I have 6 that looked like yours at that age, and I can't have a rooster. Good luck!
