Hisex chickens?

hotterotter · « **on:** February 28, 2007, 20:15 »

I'm looking to get some chooks and originally was gonna get some Black Rock, but can't find anyone locally who sells them. I've been offered Hisex POL pullets for 3 quid each, I've never heard of them before and wondered if anyone had any advice on what they're like.

Cheers

hisex are fine for back yard birds they are basically the brown chicken you see in most places you can sex them at birth with colouration cocks i think have a stripe down the head and neck ,dont quote me on that tho . good egg layers and ok for a sunday roast
