Hi. I am a new member and new to raising chickens. I obtained six chicks that I was told are Australorp chicks. None are black. Any idea what type ?

I got them at a farm supply store in Massachusettes

Can’t really tell, but they could be buff orpingtons. It’s a really common breed that seems like the most likely option. But like Pork Pie said, give it a couple weeks.

Welcome to BYC. Perhaps buff orpingtons or red sex links. There are at least two breeds in your pictures. Time will tell the breed.
