got mine from southern states so I wasn't real sure. Maybe if you find out I will too. Mine are identical to your picture. Now just hope their hens and not roos.

two of our pullets 4-13-12.jpg

Here is a picture of two of our pullets taking a nap. I am not 100% but I am pretty sure the red one is a Buff Orpington..don't know about the white one.

The white is very likely a leghorn or white rock. Leghorns will be lanky to the point of seeming skinny, and are known to be skittish. White rocks will be much fuller-bodied, like an orp or production red, and are generally pretty friendly.

The remaining 6 of my original 7 barred rocks are 3yrs old and happily divided between a friend and my mom.
Laying: 2 Partridge Rocks, 1 Columbian Wyandotte and 2 Black Australorps. 14 weeks: 3 bantam Araucana.
Cowed to chicken math and sharing my bedroom with 8 BBS Ameraucana mixes.

They look just like my Cornish x chicks.  I recently was given two cornish rock chicks about 3 weeks old  that were bought at TSC.  They were supposed to be 'assorted pullets' as well.  I have a bunch of cornish x chicks going right now that look just like that picture.  If they grow 2x as fast as the other ones you'll know for sure.

I was speaking of the first picture in the thread, not the most recent photo from MimiB.  I have no idea what those are but they are pretty:)

That looks just like the chicks I got today, mine were labeled as Amber sexlinks. I have pics here: http://www.backyardchickens.com/t/651069/female-amber-links-or-pics

That said, I'm not sure if that's what I even have, so...

Amber sex-links are a type of Tetra. There are 4 types of Tetra. All are included under the name 'tetra tints'.

Why can't they just use one name and call it good?!? Can't make it simple, can they? roll.png

Here is another picture of the white pullet I have...she has yellow feet. She has a single comb and it is still just a fleshy pink color...don't know if it will stay that color or change.

I have 5 of the same bird. I'm thinking they're White Rocks. I was so hoping for Leghorns, because they're a more frequent layer, but my 5 girls are pretty friendly; not too flighty. But they look exactly like yours.
