I can't tell if these are really blue australorp hens...they have red chests and black eyes the seller says. I am wondering if the red is from the sun bleaching them or if they aren't full blue australorps? Thoughts?

Those don’t look like Blue Australorps to me. Maybe Rhode Island Blues or mixes? I hear RI blues can have red leakage.
The gal says they are 5 months old and from tractor supply. I was doubtful then because I thought blue australorps are too rare/spendy to sell at tractor supply? Maybe I am just under-educated though?
 
This was a stock photo for an online hatchery of their blue australorps...blue australorp with a red chest? Perhaps they are blue australorps after all? What are your thoughts?
