Not what i was told they are

[The Moonshiner]

I received some chicks from Sandhill. I know they're not what I was told they were but what are they?
Attached is a link to their list of breeds and some poor quality pics of the chicks.
Single comb and yellow shanks. Appears about 2/3 are pure yellow and 1/3 are yellow with few black specks.
I only see one breed that they can be but I don't know every breed they sell.

This is not a set of breeds that I am familiar with. However, you might be able to identify them with Feathersite's baby chick list and photos:

Hope this helps!

I would guess them to be golden Erminettes.

Any ideas on what they actually were @The Moonshiner?

Delawares?

What do they look like now?

Maybe white Lehorn? Sometimes hatchery Leghorns can have black spots.

Sandhill is less a hatchery, and more a conservatory.

They're more of a hatchery masquerading as a conservatory.
When you get the correct breeds they're hatchery quality birds.

The white ones look like white leghorns and the white with splotches look like austrawhites.
Ended up with 6 cockerels and 1 pullet so don't think any will be staying.
