Back in February my husband's friend found two pullets abandoned in a dumpster, with plastic bags tied around them. Terrible! We rescued them and they seem to be grown, healthy birds now but we have no idea what they are. They have white feathers and pale yellow feet. They are nearly twice as large as our RI Reds and Leghorn. They are very sedentary and will not roost, nor will they explore the yard with the other birds. They recently started laying and their eggs are smaller than the other birds' eggs, and very pale brown. We think they might be Jersey Giants or maybe a meat breed taken from a factory setting. If you can help identify them we'd appreciate it!
