Help on breed for a few new girls in my flock!

[Jlbern21]

I took in some rescue birds that were very neglected. They hardly had any feathers and were under weight. They were quarantined for a few weeks and have recently joined my other girls. They are still rough but have been very happy and eating well. I noticed a few "lumps" on the white birds and am thinking I have more Cornish cross.

sweet birds but I'm not into the chicken stew thing and they aren't promised a long life... The only difference between my other Cornish X and these girls are the feet and beak color. And any help on the brown one would be great as well. Hard to get photos as they are still a little sketched out by me following them around with my camera.. LOL

Here are the new birds.

New birds again

The new brown one

And here is my 19 week old Cornish X. Her beak and feet are different colors

You are thinking correctly; your two white rescue birds are both Cornish cross. I'm trying to decide if the brown one is really that dark or just in poor lighting. Perhaps it's a hatchery grade Welsummer or a Welsummer mix.
