Good morning,
I got these pullets a month ago, and was wondering if anyone could give me an id on them. They are the dark ones. When I bought them, the sales people said they were brown leghorns, and I have some brooding with them, and they look different. Plus these have blue or grey legs. I’m thinking maybe Egger Eggers, but am open to suggestions. Thank you!

And since they got the breed wrong , would you say they are pullets? There isn’t larger combs on these like there were on my other roosters, but I’ve never had Easter Eggers before, so I don’t know what to look for exactly.

They're coloured like pullets, but it can be hard to tell, with EEs. Neither has the red wing bars, which are almost a sure indicator of a cockerel.

Comb's generally not helpful, and same with wattles. Tail should be helpful, in a few weeks.

Comb color still applies....real red at ~6weeks can say male...
...as can number of pea rows, 3 rows male, 1 row female.
All look to be pullets to me, except maybe the white bird...
....could just be exertion blush in the comb tho.
 
The white bird is a Cornish rock cross. I free range those and plan to breed for a heavier bird, and will breed to my Orpington.
 
And if it doesn’t work, they’ll go to freezer camp. These are four weeks, and the heaviest is a cockerel at a bit over one pound.
