Breed?

[roostersandhens]

At first I thought all the yellow chicks were probably Buff Orpingtons, but then I noticed that some have a pretty brown pattern on their wings.
What breed do you think those ones are? Rhode Island Reds? I think they are about a week old.




And what do you think the all yellow ones are? BOs?


I really don't care what breeds they are, I love them all, but I always want to know because...Not sure why, it just drives me crazy when I don't! lol!

Please note that all of these chicks are rescues!

Thanks all,

Bump.

The red is probably a Production Red.

The lighter one could be Buff Orpington.

i dont think it is a RIR at all....even chicks and even production chicks are usually redder and the feather are darker. The last one does look like a buff from the head angle, my buffs always start out yellow and then darken down to buff feathers the older they get.

Yeah, I googled production red chick and they all look darker than these guys.

The reddish ones are likely Production Reds and the other chicks are Buff Orpingtons.
