Can anyone identify this breed?

Hello Chicken Forum,

A friend of mine ordered day old chicks from McMurray Hatchery a couple years ago. One of the breeds she ordered was not available, so she agreed to a substitution of a few chickens of a different breed.

She does not remember what breed she received as the substitution, and we can't figure it out from the breed pictures we have seen.

But, I really like those chickens and I am interested in getting more.

So, I am uploading a few pictures of those chickens -- could you let me know if you recognize the breed?

THANK YOU!!!

Andrea

I think they are, hatchery breed the quality out of em,over weight, silver phoenix. But they look like very happy girls.

Silver Leghorns - Murray McMurray does carry these, and the yellow legs point right to them. By the way -

Not sure, but they look similar to some Auracaunas my friend has.
