Any idea on breed?

[Kristinadukhin]

I got these babies last night. They are a week old. They are rainbow layers so I don't know what breed they are. I was told they are a mix of Americana and Easter egger . Any idea what they might be or might be mixed with? Attaching pics.

They do look like Rhoda island red! They are super cute, I was hoping at least some were Easter eggers. I guess we will see.

No Easter eggers.

Definitely a red layer breed. No EE in there at all.

If you go looking for EE look for puffy cheeks and green unfeathered legs.

Thanks so much everyone! Maybe we'll get an EE next year.

I have the same question. I bought Brahma pullets last year at TSC when they were trying to get rid of them and I a got this. Love these hens and they produce very nice large brown eggs, but these are clearly not brahma. They are friendly too which is kinda weird, but then again my Rhode Island rooster likes to be pet and talked too...lol
