What are these chicks? from TSC

[stampntam]

Can anyone tell me what type of chicken these may be? they are about 3 weeks old. I am new to this chicken thing but I love it!!!! I purchased these at TSC.

This is what they looked like when I brought them home

two of them had a stripe down their back on the one had a double stripe down their back
I got them from the pullet bin at TSC

The white ones are my silkies.

I have been told that my chicks from TSC are Gold Sex-Link....you tell me if they are the same?

they seem very close to me???

 

[stampntam]

yes they look exactly like yours. TSC did not know when I asked they just knew they were brown laying. So if they are sex link what does that mean, they are mixed breeds, any idea what they are mixed with?

 

[rsf31tmp]

Mine came from TSC with these promises: 1) pullets 2) brown egg layers 3) no idea what they were

BYC has told me gold sex link......not sure of the cross?

Was told black sex link is Rhode Island Red and Barred Rock?

No idea for the "Gold" ???? would love to know....but everyone says we have great chicks!

They're probably a cross b/t a red rooster (NH or RIR) and white rock hen, or something comparable to that.
