This is Big Red. She's a Gold Sex Link chicken, or GSL.
Their breed from what I've read is a mix between a Rhode Island Red and a Rhode Island White. They're called sex links because their colors are linked to their sex. Males in this breed are lighter colored than females.
Big Red is our biggest GSL. She and Koekoek seem to spend time close to each other, being the two biggest of the half dozen chicks we bought. The second picture is of them on a little foray outside the run. As the smaller ones get less skittish, they'll be allowed out as well. Until then, I don't want them out and about because they may run off when I go to put them back in.
Today's comfrey count is ELEVEN. We had another one sprout overnight I guess, which is super exciting to me. It's cool to see things so vivdly and progressively paying off.
