But would they have been all black as chicks if they were Wyandottes? I thought Wyandotte chicks were "chipmunky" in marking.

BSL female are mostly black to solid black as chicks with dark legs.
GLW chicks are "chipmunky" looking.
Barred rocks and Male BSL chicks are mostly black with a white spot on top of their head.

Yes, Black Sex Links.

You will have lots of extra-large brown eggs from those big girls!!!

Wow - they all look so different! Very pretty birds!

My 3 are the feistiest of my flock. They were the ones who were mean to my runt, although now that they are in the coop and have more space they haven't been agressive. I've named them "The Wierd Sisters" after the 3 witches in Macbeth.
