I am going to be getting a mixed bunch of eggs to hatch which include broilers and leghorns. I was wondering how to tell the chicks apart when they hatch. Any tips?

I don't have much experience with meat birds, but from what I've read, Cornish Crosses can't really be used for anything but meat as they grow too fast for the rest of them to keep up, and their lungs become too small for their huge bodies. I don't know about Red Rangers.We, by mistake of the store, were given broilers instead of leghorns. Will the broilers give eggs too? Can I put them with my other hens? Or is it better to rehome them to someone who processes chicken for meat?
