I've posted multiple threads this week concerning breeds & you've all been very helpful! I think this is my last question... This is a pic of 1 of my 6 pullets. I believe they're about 6 weeks old. They all look identical to this & I'm wondering if they're white leghorns. The reason I ask is because they aren't bright white. They sort of have a golden or very pale yellow tone to them. Is this typical of white leghorns or is this a different breed. Maybe an amber link?

It looks like a White leghorn. The very slight discoloration of the feathers could be either be because its a hatchery quality WL, or its feathers are just dirty, or someone has been feeding it corn which will yellow white feathers.
 
She's either a leghorn or a white rock
With that comb though, I'm thinking leghorn
WLs will have white earlobes and WRs will have red earlobes
