Too young to sex but doubt they're EE or Olive Eggers ... They've got feathered legs. Thinking possible Cochins, maybe Brahmas. Where did you find the box?

How on earth did you find a box of chicks? Very cool though!! Would love to follow their growth and see what they turn out to be

Well my Foundlings have a fan club! Named them eenie Meenie Miney and Mo. One of the "godmothers" sent them some chicken treats via amazon. Whoo Hoo. everyone gets to adopt a chick. fav auntie is coming to do a photo shoot of the birds today. She's a very talented photographer so I hope to see some fun shots. The fan club president, Aunt Susan made a presidential inspection today of their play area aka ISO unit and they passed. They even did a little flying at each other, which makes me wonder if they are all roosters. I hope I get 1 hen. There is one that is tallest and proudest with the fattest legs who I am pretty sure is a boy. That's Mo. I'm hoping that Miney, Eenie are not roosters but I think Meenie might be a hen. its the smallest and calmest. who knows, everyone was in agreement my Peeper McNugget (Leghorn) was a roo and nope, it lays eggs!

A lot of OE have feathered legs because people use feather legged marans to make them. That being said I agree this is a lot of feathering and I'm guessing these are brahma

They appear to be Light Brahmas.

Hat is a muff? Sill learning this stuff.

Puffy cheeks are muffs. If you look up Ameraucana (spelled that way) you'll see puffy feathers under the beak and eyes. The ones under the eyes are called muffs, the ones under the beak are called a beard. Typically, these are paired together.
