Odd coloured speckled sussex chicks?? Pic!

[Burleigh Chick]

These chicks all hatched from eggs that were supposed to be purebred Speckled Sussex. Is this possible? After doing a google search i found some pics of light chicks labeled speckled sussex. Any ideas learned chicken folk???

My guess would be that the yellow ones are a different color of Sussex chicks and the breeder mixed up the eggs (Light or Buff Sussex ie) , or the breeding was of mixed colors... I've never seen chicks turn out to be speckled that started that light in color Feathersite has pictures of a bunch of the colors as chicks http://feathersite.com/Poultry/CGP/Sussex/BRKSussex.html

They're not speckled. Likely light or buff maybe, light's far more common. Send a pic to the seller of the eggs and ask what's up.
