I thought these birds were Leghorns or maybe even White Rocks. I bought them for eggs. So if they are Cornish X, I hear Im SOL on the egg laying!
Can you help identify them??? These birds are bigger than my RIR and slightly bigger than my (possible) Australorps.
I have no use for a meat bird, as I had no plans on a BBQ!!

I don't think so, Cornish X can't roost, and often have a hard time walking. If your birds don't show these characteristics, then they're probably not Meat birds

Well, thats great news, I was worried. So maybe Leghorns or White Rocks? I know they are a little away from the camera to see the details. Also they were all out of the Pullet bin at TSC. Hoping for all girls. My heart is not beating as fast now.... THANK YOU!!
I live in Western Maryland. Where are you in SE PA?
 
say that their White rocks. A bit chunky for leghorns ^^

I'm about an hour north westish from philly

I like them. They are still a little skiddish, but are warming up quickly. They go to the coop this weekend!
