Help!! What Breed is this Chick?!?

[ACTWESTWING]

Hello! I purchased 3 Chicks at Tractor Supply and they were that certain stores "special breed" when I first got them at a couple days old they were completely blonde all over with feathered feet. I thought they were standard white cochins.. now at about 3 weeks old they have black tipped wings, huge feet and thick legs. So now I'm clueless on what they are!!! Hope thats a good enough picture i can take more if needed! Thank You!!!

Looks like a Light Brahma, to me. They're fun birds. Love mine!

Thank You! They seem to have wonderful personalities and full of energy and spirit. I feel much better now that i know what they are!!! Do you know of anyway i can tell the sex of them? i bought them straight run.

Looks almost exactly like our Light Brahma. We were told they were a docile breed and great with kids - and, of our 3 chicks, she's the one who doesn't seem to mind being picked up.

Light Brahma...we love ours

Looks a little bit rooish to me. The combs a bit pink and those legs are thick. Ours is a rooster too and he is the sweetest thing..even now at 9 months old

We bought pullets, not straight run. I don't know how they tell the sex of them. I'm guessing those who figure that out at the hatcheries are trained to do so.

Here's our Light Brahma. She's supposed to be a pullet. She's about 12 days old.
