Hi, I don't have any idea what breed my roo is. Can someone tell me? Thanks.

probably a red sex link rooster. is he LF or bantam?

 

[Chick1043]

What does LF stand for? lol And hes not a bantam!

 

[Chick1043]

I don't remember what they said but it was something like and Ameracauna...but he doesn't look like that.

LF means large fowl. He looks like a leghorn to me, but doesn't have yellow legs. I think leghorns are used with rhode island reds to make red sex links, so maybe a male one of those.

I'm still going with red sex link boy. red ear lobes are a dead give away that he's not a leghorn.

Ok, thanks! Another question then! About two weeks ago I got a black sexlink chick. How can you tell the breeds on sexlinks?

 

[LindsayB]

If its a girl the chick will be solid black. The boys have a white dot on top of their heads. Then once they feather out the girls will stay back and the boys will be barred.

I have no idea on the breeds, it all depends on the breeder/hatchery

Mine is just getting in the last of her feathers. I noticed in the chest area there is some brownish gold in the feathers! Have any idea what breed that might be? Thanks for your help!
