Sexlink Thread- Pictures and Discussion

Not that I know I know of but it should be a really neat cross. They should be rose combed, the pullets should be black tailed and blue tailed columbian with maybe some indication of lacing, and the same with the roos but they would have the typical Yellow/Gold on Silver color of sexlink males. Please make sure to post pics.

I will post pictures. I am considering selling these here in our small area as day old sex links. Now I just need a name for them.

Wow, I can not WAIT to see that. Good luck!

Oops, I haven't been on here in a while!

How's everyone doing?
I wanted to say that I just ordered my Buff Orpington chicks! They should arrive from Meyer Hatchery on March 1st-3rd and I'm really pumped! But, I have a couple of questions and it'd be nice if you could check them out for me

So, how's everyone doing?

Jessica! How exciting! I was wondering where you left off to. How many BO's did you order? Me and the girls are well

I will be sure to look at your questions.

Very beautiful!

How old is the first roo?


I got some pictures of lily yesterday and ill post them when I get off mobile.

I have to check my "written" hatch log but I believe he is a 200? hatch. But I will get back to you so don't take my word on that. I have all my mating of poultry on paper and need to transfer it to my computer. I need to go take pics still. But I can't wait to see Miss Lily.

Update:
I found my paper trail and Cuckoo (First Roo) was born Apirl, 18, 2007 he is alpha male and he is in a pen with T.J.'s son Tiger. They are with a varied color group of EE birds.
T.J. and Estrah were born March 21, 2007. They are less than a month apart. Tiny and Easter are no longer alive. But they were the sweetest birds.

Does or has anyone on here gotten Black Stars from Murray Mcmurray - or own any that can shed some light on their personalities - hardiness - laying - etc ?
Thanks

I have seen bad results from Murray McMurray but I highly recommend Welp

If you want to get straight to the laying, you know that you can order them at 17 wks, right? My neighbor is about to order them- come back to the thread for updates.

Can sexlinks be entered in country fair shows?

If they have a production class!



SOOO! Sexlink experts! Can a Lakenvelder be used as a rooster over slow feathering breed hens to create feather sexable chicks? essentially what i am asking is, are Lakenvelder rapid feathering?
