How old are they? You might want to hold your horses for just a little longer and see just what you have.
The Rocks I got on easter, and they were maybe a week or so old got them from Country Mark store, the Austalorps are the same age and the New Hampshire reds are a couple weeks old now, I got them Monday. I am going to hold on before jumping on getting that RIR anyways, have to wait and see what comes of the ones I have.

I have a Black Australorp and she is wonderful. She lays big brown eggs and is so sweet. Her name is Betty and even though she started out quite homely, she has become quite a beauty... don't you think? http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3094/3121202082_603208ee8f.jpg?v=0
Oh yeah! she is beautiful! I hope mine turn out as nice as she did!

That second one looks a little iffy, doesn't it?
yup, the first one maybe too, the comb got flashed out, but i wondered on that one too.
Funny you mention those two, they do not take kindly to me trying to pet or pick them up, they will bite you, and I don't mean peck either, when I took those pics they got really mad that I picked them up and moved them up to take the photo's.
