ISA brown is a breed (well actually it’s a TM'd brand name but I call it a breed) of chicken bred in France for maximum egg-laying. They are often the hens you buy eggs from at the grocery store. They usually lay an egg a day. They are very common and popular because they are sweet and lay a lot.
It's so cool that you can trust your cat with them, mine would eat any chicks in 2 seconds! Unfortunately those pics don't help too much...with sex links males are all white and females are red, so you can wait and see on that.
We weren't sure how the cat would react. At one point, when we were playing with them outside, he came screaming across the yard, stopped right in front of the white one, then laid down and snuggled her. Now, he will sit on top of or right next to our makeshift chicken tractor and make sure no one bothers them.
A spot on their heads? Like, a little black mark? One of them had that!
That's adorable! My cat regularly gives us the wonderful gift of a chipmunk on the porch, so chicks are similarly small, fluffy, and helpless, and the cat would decide that they are similarly delicious. My cat is very scared of our hens though, I put him down next to him, all it took was one 'bock cluck BOCK' and he went runningWe weren't sure how the cat would react. At one point, when we were playing with them outside, he came screaming across the yard, stopped right in front of the white one, then laid down and snuggled her.

They look within a week old, not many feathers. Make sure they stay warm! They are so cute!
No, you have golden sexlinks/red sexlinks/golden comets. The males will be white and the females will be red. No spots on their head
I don't know very well? I'm a little confused on this myself. I can't seem to find any good pictures showing you what's what.
