What breed is this?

[EFrentz]

Hi everyone! This is my first post. We ordered 10 Barred Rock pullets from Rural King, but ended up with only 4 actually being BRs. Two others I think are going to be Leghorns, and the rest look like this little girl. Can anyone tell me what she might be? Thanks in advance! (She is about 3 weeks old, supposedly born on 7/5)

To me it looks more like a turkey poult than a chicken chick as it doesn't look like it has a comb of any sort coming through. But I'm certainly no expert so hopefully someone else has a better idea.

I don't think it looks to chicken-y either.

Those are turkeys ! LOL Congrats. They need higher % food.

That nob above the beak means you have a turkey poult. Most hatcheries don't sex turkeys, you are going to have to wait and see if it's a male or female.

O boy...I bet you never order chickens from that store again.
What a nightmare for you.

I'd ask for all my money back.

wonder if OP got charged for BR ? Turkeys are more expensive.

I'd be fuming..if I ordered Barred rocks and got turkeys.
I'd demand a refund. That is just wrong.

OP...did you just pick these up out of a bin at your store or you actually ordered them and they gave you the wrong order?

 

[EFrentz]

I actually ordered them. And being new to the chicken life, didn't know. So...I'll be making a trip back to Rural King with 6 turkeys and my receipt. Which, you know....is TWO AND A HALF HOURS AWAY.
