I agree with the other posts....White Leghorns. A certain hatchery (that will remain nameless) loves to put extra in my orders. The last time they put 13 extra white leghorn roos and that was my last order from them.

I love how much I learn here! My first thought was white leghorn due to size, body shape, white earlobes. But then I, also, thought they'd have bigger combs and smaller tails! And looky here, I was right the first time. I really had no idea they are so pretty!

I kind of agree with you Rooster Lover they do look like they might have some kind of Yokahoma blood in them, but then again maybe its this specific line of Leghorns has this trait of long tails and lond saddle feathers.

Leghorn or leghorn mix, they are really pretty though. I know you probably have your answer just wanted to add my two cents.

And they are beautiful boys, very well behaved.....and they do have very shrill crows, high pitched, whereas my RIR's are very low pitched crows, I got these with a batch of hens from a neighbor, she let them run wild, so they could be mixed, but these were the only type of chickens she had, they are pretty, but too many of them lol.
