But it looks like when they are chicks they are black. This was her when she was a chick



When I looked up of pictures of Black Sex links, I did see how she could be that. Thank you for your help.

Black Sexlink chicks are usually solid black, black with a little white, or black with a little copper color on there head like yours. The parent birds I use are just hatchery stock, which is probably why there is so much variation in them.

I just found a local lady that has true Ameraucanas and am on the list to get at least 1 (kinda want 2), she also has Isbars not sure if they are nice to have. And my husband really wants a polish of some sort for their funky look. Then the black australorps look cool and it seems like I should have a RIR as well......

My coop is 4x8 with an attached run that is 8x11.5.... how many chickens can I have? I have a feeling that I am addicted and I thought I built the coop way larger then I needed...

I haven't even gotten my first egg! the ones I have are around 3.5 months old....

Wow well it looks like most people prefer the rainbow flock or others just aren't playing along. You all have some wonderful chicks. I can't wait to expand my flock again next year. I am hoping to get some buff orphingtons and more blue andalusions. My husband had picked one he likes to I just have to figure out what it is. Im posting a picture of anyone wants to help
