Red Sex Link or Red Rangers

[bearqst]

I picked up 12 Red Sex Links and 12 Red Rangers, RSL for eggs and RR for meat, now that their about 12 weeks old it's diffacult to tell the difference between some. Some of RR are white and black feathered with red coloring, most look just like the RSL's, so I'm wondering if there is a better way to tell the difference. I want to start harvesting the RR's but don't want to harvest the RSL's by mistake.

I was told that the RR's get bigger legs for meat birds?

Thanks

Cast you post some photos? Seeing the birds allows us to spot and point out the differences

Will do, I'll get them all out in the run and see if I can get some of both mixed

The red, white and black one in first picture, I know is a Red Ranger, but only three of the twelve have those markings.

I have RSL and mine look like your lighter ones. I don't have any that are that dark mahogany red.

I was thinking the same in color, have to count the number of lighter ones and if I got 12
