Buff Orpington? I’m skeptical.

I have two - they both look like Meeker here - sold to me as Buff Orpingtons; 10 weeks old.

They seem awfully red-tinted. Are they something else or is this what young BO pullets look like?

Thanks!!!

I'd guess some kind of Production Reds

Very likely production reds - not Buff Orpingtons for sure.

The hatchery the lady got them from as part of the over-hatch also has New Hampshire Reds and RIR. They look different from the RIR so I think NH Red or production red is likely. Thanks!
