Am I a Welsummer hen or what?

[chickenlisa]

I have 3 Identical hens-pardon the muck and mud in the pen. Its pouring rain today.....I think they may be Welsummers, but I thought they were something else a month ago and I forget what. So can anyone ID them for me please? They are 6 mos old. Yellow legs, single comb,...

Thanks-Lisa

Looks like a brown leghorn to me. Welsummers do not have the white ear lobes that are characteristic for leghorns.

I'd agree, they look like brown leghorns to me also.

Wow, they're beautiful! I think I want to start a chicken collection - 2 of each breed!!!

Thanks. Oh well, at least they are beautiful and are "egg laying machines" as one website calls them. I also don't want most of my hens turning broody on me, and these won't. I have lots who willl and some who are trying to now-and we're heading into cold and wet Autumn here.
Thanks again everyone.
