Black Sex Link Started Pullet

Valley Hatchery is excited to present the Black Sex Link Started Pullets, perfect for beginners in backyard chicken keeping. These hybrid chickens stand out for their prolific egg-laying abilities and quick maturation. A unique feature of this breed is the ease of distinguishing males from females based on color, making them a practical choice for those focused on egg production. These chickens are active and generally kid-friendly, adding fun and engagement to any backyard setting. It’s important to note that while Black Sex Link hens are known for their gentle nature, the roosters can exhibit aggressive and territorial behavior. As such, they might not be suitable for environments with small children or other pets. The hens are consistent layers, producing an average of 200 to 280 large light brown eggs each year. Adult males typically weigh around 8.5 pounds, and the females average about 6.5 pounds. Black Sex Links are not recognized by the American Poultry Association (APA). Their lifespan usually ranges from 2 to 3 years, attributed to their rapid growth and active egg-laying. At Valley Hatchery, our focus is on health and quality. Our Started Pullets, aged 15-20 weeks and vaccinated against Marek’s Disease, are ready to join and thrive in your flock. We also offer Black Sex Link chicks for those interested in raising these dynamic birds from a younger age. Choose Valley Hatchery for robust and productive chickens, all backed by a live arrival guarantee.
