I think they might be production reds or a cross of a 'RED (RI or NH) with a Buckeye. Yours have the Buckeye comb, but too light a coloring for a Buckeye; too dark of a coloring & wrong comb for the crosses (ISA brown, cinnamon queen, etc - these are usually a RI Red or NH red Roo crossed with either a RI W or a White leghorn hen to get the sex linking).: About the right coloring for a RIR, but wrong comb.

Production Red: (cross between RIR & NHR)

Do you know where Rural King gets their chicks from? That might help narrow it down some. For example, TSC gets theirs from Hoover Hatchery. So, I could go onto Hoover's site and look at their chicks to compare for ones bought at TSC.
The Buckeyes here don’t have that flat disc shape for combs so at least compared to these that’s different. This supposed to be a pea comb. But these guys are hatchery stock.
