i bought a chick from tractor supply in februrary. it turned out to be a rooster and i'm not sure what kind it is. it is 7 months old and weighs about 10 pounds it is white.
Probably a Red Sex Link.
Red Sex Links are hybrids produced by crossing a red gene rooster (RIR, NHR, or Production Red) with a silver gene hen (WR, RIW, SLW, Delaware, or Light Sussex). The resulting offspring can be sexed from hatching by color (male chicks are whitish, female chicks are reddish) and are egg laying machines, outlaying either parent breed. It's one of the interesting quirks of hybridization.what type of breeds do yall think it is mixed with?
