Hi there!
I'm new to chickens too, so I hope you get more definite answers from someone with more knowledge; but your chicks look like my 9 day old golden comets. Sooo cute!

Thanks for your fast response! I find your response interesting because I was thinking they were at least 4-5 week old.... I can t wait to see more response later.
Again thanks for your speedy response.
 
They look to be around 2-3 weeks old. Probably on the younger side. At 4-5 weeks, they would be mostly feathered out. I don't know the breed. You might have to wait for somebody more experienced, but I think it could be any red chicken breed.
 
To young to determine breed for sure. But I suspect they are some type of Red Sexlink. I'd say 2 weeks of age tops. By 3 weeks they will have started getting tail feathers.
 
I take a lot of pictures.

These are 1 week old (the one in front is a gold sexlink... looks familiar, right?)

At 2 weeks, they're getting little epaulets and tails.

BTW, the brown chick on the right in the doorway is the same chick in both pictures. That's how fast it can go!
