Red Sex-Link Chickens: The Ultimate Egg-Laying Hybrid
The Red Sex-Link is a highly efficient brown/red hybrid chicken breed, renowned for its top-tier egg production and exceptional feed conversion. As the lightest of our brown egg layers, this breed weighs approximately 3½ lbs. at 18 weeks and reaches 4½ to 5 lbs. after a year of laying.
What sets the Red Sex-Link apart is its cost-effective feeding. While most brown egg layer pullets consume 9-10 kg of feed by the time they start laying, the Red Sex-Link only requires 7-8 kg, depending on their laying onset. This makes them the best feed converter among brown egg layers.
In their first year, Red Sex-Link chickens can produce up to 327 eggs, showcasing their remarkable productivity. They have also proven their resilience and performance in large free-range trials in the U.K.
Visually, the females are a beautiful reddish-brown with white underfeathers, while the males are predominantly white with occasional brown markings. Choose Red Sex-Link chickens for a reliable, efficient, and high-yield egg-laying experience.
