Why so many names for a breed...or are they different?

[momreda]

I have seen some pics of chickens lately that I thought were ISA browns however I see peple calling them Red Sex Links and I have seeen them called Cinnamon Queens. Is this the same breed with all these different names or are they different?

Cinnamon Queens are Silver Laced Wyandotte x New Hampshire, so - They're different.

We bought our pullets at a feed store, hubby said they were called Cinnamon Queens however, they look just like an ISA brown and they lay dark brown enormous eggs. This is why I am confused.

Basically they are the same, but technically they are different breed crosses. They are all suppose to be able to be sexed by color.

Yeah sadly crossing a red chicken with a silver laced just makes a red one with light hilights. . . I was wondering the same too, because I was expecting something interesting like a red laced.
