Help identifying breed of day old chicks

[schatze17]

Teacher says they came from Rhode Island Reds. They don't look like our other RIR, but I suppose time will tell.

;-)

They are definitely not RIR, RIR chicks are reddish colored.

3 weeks old...

Fluff is golden yellow, feathers are yellow white

Here they are at 5 weeks 3 days old...

They are looking more white in color, definite red ear lobes. Remember, they came from brown eggs. The breeder said they came from Rhode Island Reds, but I'm thinking perhaps he meant Rhode Island Whites? Or maybe White Rocks?

And I'm thinking I didn't do a very good job at picking out girls...


Tulip





Biscuit...has a few black spots





Daffodil...perhaps the only girl? Comb is still small and yellowish.





Buttercup






Any thoughts?

3 cockerels and 1 pullet...im thinking they might have leghorn in them

 

[SouthernChicka8]

yea looks like you only have one girl in the bunch

Here are the chicks at 10 1/2 weeks old....


Tulip, the only one with the brown







Biscuit






Daffodil






Buttercup






Not the best pics, they were running because the kids were chasing them. LOL

I'm guessing I won't be getting a job as a chicken-sexer.
