I'm a little confused

Are these Rhode island reds or did I get ripped off because everything I see nothing looks like mine

Hmm, I don't see any photos yet. There are a lot of "RIR" sold by hatcheries (and therefor farm stores) that are actually Production Reds, etc - they will look quite different from true, heritage RIR (which are best sourced from private breeders with lines that you like)

Welcome to BYC, You need a minimum number of posts, I think 20, to be able to download pictures. There is a little square icon two to the left of the smiley face icon across the top of the reply that says "download images." Keep talking and soon you will be able to post pictures.

Those birds will be Easter Eggers - often misrepresented as Araucana/Ameraucana - it isn't *really* the retailer's fault when it comes to this as they can only sell the product that they order from the hatchery and *should* be able to take the hatchery at it's word that what they list is what they are selling.
