These 10 yellow chicks came from Meyer hatchery bargain bin, all female.

Three are all yellow with yellow legs 4 toes & straight comb.??

Three are very small yellow with black flecks yellow legs 4 toes and a straight comb. (Exchequer Leghorn??)

Four yellow with black flecks yellow legs 4 toes straight comb and beards. With a noticeable dark yellow spot on the top of their heads.??🤔🤷🏻‍♀️🐣

Opinions greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Not sure Meyer Hatchery sells California Whites. But I’ll check. Thanks

I haven't looked.

Most hatcheries sell them because they're one of the standard white-laying hybrids -- supposedly calmer than Leghorns while laying almost as well.

I have no Leghorn experience, but I call my CWs intrepid and curious rather than flighty.
 
No Meyers do not sell California Whites. The odd identical yellow spots on the heads of the four larger bearded chicks are the one that have me stumped. 🤔
