Help! What the heck are these chickens!?!?

[mamabear6810]

I bought these because they claimed theyre sapphire gems, but i have a lot of gems and theyve NEVER turned white!!!! These were all blue with white head spots. All new feathers coming in are coming in white!
What the heck do i have here!?!?!

Maybe White Jersey Giants?

Here are two hatcheries with photos of the chicks and the adults:

What do you think about white australorp??? Never knew they were a thing until now.
I tried to call and find what hatchery they use but theyre closed now.

First of all do we know if these are pure bred chickens? 2nd, white Jersey Giant is a great guess, Jersey Giants have black legs and feet tops, with flesh colored feet on the middle and bottom of the foot.

With that said, I just hatched 15 chickens that are a unknown mix of all my chickens outside, 5 of which are Jersey Giants, 2 white, 2 black hens and 1 black Rooster.

So, to repeat myself I suppose, that was a great guess but I'd like to know where these came from and if we know they're pure-breeds or mixes or unknown.

EDIT: Re-read the OP. I'm assuming unknown.

So attached is a sapphire gem chicken I found because I wasn't familiar with this chicken. Not being familiar with the chicken I have no idea. But I'd love for you to keep us posted.

It came from family farm and home and they claimed they were sapphire gems.
Having gems myself, i knew this was not correct. Lol.
I looked up jersey giant and it said they have yellow feet. Australorps have white and these chicks have white

I'll be waiting to see what hatchery they use.
I don't remember seeing white australorps on any of the major US hatchery websites, but that may say more about my memory than about the hatcheries

White foot bottoms.

Good point about the color on the bottom of the feet.
Most breeds with white feathers have white or yellow down as chicks, so White Jersey Giants have stood out in my mind as the weird ones-- dark chicks that grow white feathers.
They may not be the only breed with that trait, but until now I had not noticed any others.

(Of course, a hatchery could be raising chickens with the wrong skin color, but hopefully there is a better explanation than that.)

Maybe Blue splash Marans? They can have clean legs, slate shanks, and a yellowish dot.
