New Chicks: What breed are they?

[mikebonfanti]

Afternoon y'all! I am new to backyard chickens, both the forum and the activity. We picked up 6 from the "red pullet bin" at TSC on March 18th. Anyone have an idea on what we actually got?

It's hard to tell when they are baby's. But they look like either: New Hampshire reds, Rhode island reds, red sex links, or mix of all of them.
where did you get them? Did they say any thing about breeds? We have a mix of all of them.

We picked them up from Tractor Supply Company. They "red pullets" were labeled as either NH reds, RI reds, or Red Sex Links. That narrows it down.

We got are red pullets from tractor supply company to, so you really can't tell till there older.
Sorry I couldn't be of much help.

Not a problem! I really appreciate the response. As long as they lay eggs, I really don't mind what breed they are.

You are lucky to at least have some idea. My husband chose to get ours from the "assorted Bantam" tub at TSC. Not even thinking that we may have mostly roosters. We have quite a selection, two with leggings (one reddish one yellow) two mostly brown/blk and one that looks totally different, yellow blk and white. I know nothing about Bantams, could be interesting, or infuriating.

Would anyone be able to tell me what the ones are with leggings or are there too many?
