Of my 10 RIR chicks, there is one in particular that has almost white wings. Then there are a couple others with more cream color wings, and the rest have wings the same color as their fuzz.
They are a week old today.

Do these colors indicate anything? Like sex, or a possible mix breed?

Thanks!

Oh, and I think I'm already hooked. They were eating out of my hand! Oh, and I bought them meal worms and crickets and they went f'n crazy! So fun to watch!

Do you have a picture? My reds were about 2 weeks old, but you can see here the wings are not a solid color.

Mine are like those too. I hope they are RIRs. I didn't want sex link ones. I'm going to order eggs from a private breeder next time anyways. These are my practice chickies. First time raising them in about 15 years!
 
Here's 2 of mine.

This is what most of them look like.

This the one with the lightest wings & belly.
