Hello everyone! Happy Saturday!!! Could someone please help me identify these white hens? I thought maybe Rhode Island White, but the black speckles are throwing my off. Any ideas? I'm stumped!
Could someone please tell me what breed these white hens are?

They could be one of the White Leghorn production crosses like California Whites, Austra Whites etc, do you know what color egg they lay?.

The 3 white lay very light brown eggs. one is laying small white eggs.
They look like Austra Whites, which are produced by crossing Black Australorp roosters with a White Leghorn hens. The eggs of Austra Whites are often cream colored or very light brown or tan. Austra Whites are excellent layers and you should get loads of eggs from those girls.
