What are my girls?

[Rob1975]

Middle of March I bought 12 pullets. The girl at tractor supply had no idea what kind they were. Now that they have their color and markings can anyone tell me what breed they are? All 12 are the same colors, some have more brown than white and vice versa.

They look like red sexlinks. The ones that are mostly brown with some white are girls. Boys are white with some red.

Thank you for the quick response. The pearch you see in the pic is 28" from the floor is that to high for them to get up on?

 

[junebuggena]

Nope, that perch is not too high at all. My roosts are set at about three feet tall and my Barred Rocks have been getting up on them since they were 8 weeks old. They have only just started to sleep on them at night at 16 weeks old.

All your girls are Red Sex Link pullets which are laying machines. You should get loads of eggs from them. )
