Ok...I have some pullets,couple roos.I had asked before what people thought on here.I bought them a TSC,in the assorted reds bin...thought they were RIR, since thats what the guy there told us.

obviously he was clueless too! LOL Anyway...I have had suggestions from NHRs to Sex link,and mixes. I know they came from Privett in New Mexico.I did find that out. I have done some research now,and I don't think they are sex link,cause now I have read that sex link roos would be white...mine are not.And my pullets are not looking like the sex link colors at all now.

So by looking at pics and comparing I have it narrowed down now to all most certain

.... does anyone have pics I could see of some Red Sussex...or New Hampshire Reds?? Or does anyone have a list of what chicks Privett would have in assorted reds?? I really want to know what I have....it has killed me for the last 2 months.

I might add....they grew pretty fast and eat like crazy!! That might be a trait of a breed or something.

Is it possible that they are red broilers? I think I saw the pictures you posted and they look identical to the red broilers I got from Privett.

Ok,now I really need to find out what I got,so I can know to either keep them or slaughter them for the freezer.

Well my hubby will,I can't bring myself to do such a thing.

Cause broilers are for meat,not eggs. No more TSC chicks for me,unless I know what I'm buying...

We live and learn I guess if you're right. lol

Hey, I could definitely be wrong, or there could be another breed that looks similar that they sell. Don't go making dumplings based on my statement

Privett and Ideal are essentially the same. I think they are family and whatever one doen't have the other might so the orders could be filled from either place. I need some pics to help you out though.
 
Do you have any pics? I have RIR's and red sex links... I could at least see if they look like either of them. And I wouldnt count the sex links out yet if you dont have a white rooster... I have a red sex link hen who's white as snow, she looks like she should be a roo!

Really hoping to find out what they are this time...by the way they grew faster than what my others are growing...I don't know if that helps?
