Baby Chicks: Golden Buff (Red Star)

Golden Buffs are "sex link" chickens, meaning they're bred specifically so that males and females are different colors when they hatch. Females are egg-laying machines that continue to lay well in the heat and cold, when many others slow down. The males are said to be good "fryers" -- which makes this a good dual purpose breed! We love this breed for backyarders because the females are sweet, small and docile, in addition to being super layers! You may also know them by any of the following names:
Red Star
Comets
Golden Comet
Golden Sex Link
Isa Brown
Red Sex Link
