Breed?

[Idaho Chicken Bungalow]

Easter Egger's or some other mix... Can't imagine anyone asserting anything different based on those pics. So if you really want to be more certain, can the friend just ask the neighbor ?? They're really cute

Super cute little chipmunk faces!

Look like EEs or barnyard mix. Where did the neighbor get them?

I believe they were a purchase from Tractor Supply or similar for kids and the family figured out they didn't know how to take care of chickens

I think he said Tractor Supply or a farm store

Oh good, chances are high that they are Easter Egger not barnyard mix if from TSC. Your friend will really enjoy EE's. They're usually very sweet birds and they lay gorgeous blue and/or green eggs.

Very likely to be Easter Eggers then.

What are EE's? Sorry, new to chickens

Easter Eggers are mixes of chicken breeds that carry genes for colored eggs (not all chickens do). Because EEs are random mixes of those breeds, they can have any combo of traits like crests, straight, pea, or rose combs, 4 or 5 toes, feathering on the legs, and such. But with the color gene you'll get colored eggs: shades of blue & green. In a different gene pool there are EEs that lay beautiful chocolate brown eggs. (But there's always a chance of white,cream, tan & brown.)

I'll be jealous of those eggs
