Can somebody help us ?

So 10 weeks ago we picked up our daughters 10 chickens through the 4h chick chain program. We were told we had 5 Easter Eggers and 5 silver laced wyandottes well we did get 5 Easter Eggers but now were not sure what the other 5 actually are and apparently they don't either. We were told yesterday that the other 5 were in fact barred rocks. We looked up the breed and they look nothing like what we have so if someone could please tell us what we have would greatly appreciate your help

The yellow birds appear to be buff Orpington

Well that's kind of what we thought too. But they say we got barred rocks. Either way we like them

I agree, Buff Orpingtons. They are a great breed.

Yup! Buff Orpingtons. Oh well, they might think you have Barred Rocks, but you certainly do not!

Have any of the folks id'ing them actually seen the birds or are they just going by records of what should have been distributed to you?

They are just going by records. They haven't came out and inspected yet
