Jersey Giant Sexlink?

[Blackberry18]

Dark legsfeet, no spot on the head white belly. Do normal black sexlinks have yellow or white bellies?

Mine didn't, but it all depends. Jersey Giant chicks usually have white bellies, resembling Australorps.

Mine didn't, but it all depends on the mix. Sex-Links are basically chicks where you can tell the difference from male to female at an early age. Jersey Giants do have a white chest, rather resembling Australorps.

I'm gonna post pics down the road. I hatched some Ancona welsummer mix chicks and EE welsummer, JG x EE. I'm shooting for big black sexlinks but couldn't resist outing the other eggs in there. 12 out of 18 on first try incubating.

next batch is up, added a fan,temp seems more stable. More eggs this time. Have an older bater with no turner for a lock down humid hatchery. This way I can start a new batch every 18 days. Is this a common practice? My girlfriend and I have only been chicken crazy for one year.
