OK So no RIR, all sex link then. Can you pick out the roos?

 

[BantyRooster]

There are no roos, they're all hens.

Yep. That's the great thing about sex-links, it's easy to tell from their color that those are all hens.

So, Heather or anyone that knows, could you explain this to me about the color? What would a sex-link roo look like compaired to these? Don't get me wrong, I am very happy that they are all hens. I have just never found anything that has told me how to figure this all out.

A red sex link roo would be mostly white with some red, usually around the shoulders. You can see some pretty good examples here: http://www.feathersite.com/Poultry/CGP/Sex-links/BRKSexLink.html .
