Did I get the breeds I was told I got? *pics added

What do you think? I got some chicks and I *think* they look like the breeds I was told but I am new at this.

First up is Ameraucana? ONE is more reddish than the rest ( you can see it in the 2nd pic) and one other one is booted.

Next is Black Australorp? Not all of them have white on their chest though. * I have been told sex-links? Does this mean I could sex them now?

Last is Leghorns. It's hard to tell since they are dyed but I'm wondering if you can tell which are roos?

Thanks as always!

I'd say your Ameraucanas are actually Easter Eggers. I can't help with the Australorps as I don't have any. The Leghorns all look to be roo's though. Big legs and big combs!

The only one I would question is the booted chick. The rest appear to be as labeled. The orange chick Might be a pullet, but it is hard to tell at this time. I don't think I have ever seen a booted EE. Maybe more photos of just that one would be of help?

EE's would be awesome too. But you killed me with the all roos. lol. Ok, I will find my booted one and get a pic of it by it's self.

They have the same color as a lil EE roo that I hatched almost a week ago

Did they say they were pullets?

The dyed chicks are usually vent sexed as cockerals. The sexer might have made a mistake, and there MIGHT be a pullet in the group, but don't count on it!

The dark chicks do look like my BAs. All of mine had yellow undersides, and at least white tips on their first wing feathers, though.

Ah ok. No everything was straight run. The dyed ones I got from someone who had got them as pets and didn't know so it was pretty much like taking a chance with them. Even if they are roos it's totally ok. Working on getting a pic of the booted one.

Ok here is the one that is booted, although not all of it's toes have feathers I noticed.

And here is the reddish one. I just realized his legs are not colored like any of the others...

Not sure on the booted chick, although the coloring is the same as the EE minus the feathered legs, but yes the second is def an EE. Cute chicks!!!

Thanks! And awesome! I like the idea of EE's.
