What are sexlink chickens?
in sex-linked chickens the males coloring and markings will be different looking in newly hatched chicks. For example: Golden Sex Link Chickens (also known as Golden Comets), will have reddish yellow chicks and lighter yellow chicks. The feathers are different for the different sexes. It is easy to determine if the chick is a female (pullet) or male (roo). Sex-linked chickens are not a standard chicken breed, rather a hybrid cross of two different breeds, usually combined to create highly productive hens. There are several different sex-link hybrids on the market. The benefit to buying sex-linked chicks is knowing that you have all pullets and no roosters in the bunch!
