Buff Orpington chicks. White feathers?

We have a buff orp that color too - we call her Chicken Little and she's paler than the others.  I think some have started calling this a Lemon Orp?  Is yours more calm/friendly?  Poor thing was my kids' favorite and she was pretty patient with them!
.

There was a mixup at the hatchery and the birds with white turned out to be Cornish Cross. My replacement birds are very obvious Buff Orpingtons and are extremely friendly. They're growing like little weeds.
 
I have BO chicks and they are light brown so happy to know there was a mixup and they sent the wrong ones instead of scamming u and mine at 5 days old are getting tail feathers I can't believe it they do grow like weeds!!

Sooooooo... these are my two "Buff Orpington's"... The yellow one is not looking to be buff... dark legs.. feathers coming in white
 
You have a white Easter Egger.


She's just the sweetest to the rest of the chicks, or at least we hope "she". The buff Orpington brooder I selected them from was straight run. Right now we call her Mama because she will snuggle the tiny bantam chicks and keep them warm. If my leghorn chicks start pecking at the littles, Mama will walk through the middle of them. Montana, (the buff one) again hoping for female, but easily can be called Moe, has taken a huge liking to me. Will perch onto my hand and just hang out in my lap.
