can Welsummers have white in the chest ??

[sadieh]

I just bought a bunch of chicks that are a month old, they are suppose to be Welsummers, Barred Rocks, and Cochins. I was trying to sex them by looking at the chest feathering coming in and noticed that some appear to have some white feathering. I haven't seen any pics of Welsummers with white feathering, but am new to chickens. Is it just because they are young?

Do you have a picture? Are you sure you didn't get speckled Sussex? (As chicks welsummers and speckled Sussex are very hard to tell apart)

I've never had white come in on my birds chests.

Here are some pics, The guy I bought them from buys eggs and hatches them out, he said these are Welsummer
