Hello there !!
Had a question for the forum and as stated in the title so sorry for the redundancy !
These hens were sold to me as amhearst hens but I am beginning to doubt their purity as I look at more and more pics.
Any help would be greatly appreciated !!! Thanks!

They are Goldens. If they were a cross, their leg color would be blueish gray, also there would be a reddish hue to the crown feathers and the throat/neck area, the skin around the eye will also be a bluish tint on the hens of a cross or a pure Amherst as well.
Sometimes Golden hens will have flakes of yellow feathers on their crown feathers but not always.
