Single comb and no feathers on their legs= not Brahma. Generic yellow chicks could be almost any white, buff or even red breed.

Sorry, not very helpful. idunno

Ooo they are cute though! big_smile

My extra roos from Ideal looked just like that.  Here's a pic of them now at 2.5 weeks.  I'm still trying to figure out what they are.
