Black Sex Links as Charming and Productive Egg Layers
The Black Sex Link is a highly productive layer, producing up to 280 large brown eggs annually. Though not as efficient as a Red Sex Link, their consistent production of large brown color eggs and slightly heavier weight add to their versatility.
They are also charming with their stunning shades of breast feathers and beyond, from shimmery beetle green to golden coloring. Diversify the feather color in your flock by raising Black Sex Link chicks.
Eggs and Meat for Any Flock Setup
As a cross between Barred Rock and Rhode Island Red, the Black Sex Link has a larger frame than our other hybrids. This means you can utilize them as dual-purpose birds.
Whether you want to ramp up your egg production or complement your flock with a balanced, dual-purpose breed, the Black Sex Link is the perfect addition to your coop.
