Rhode Island White?

[Farmerswife23]

I was told these were Rhode Island Whites, but I have read that they should have rose combs although some can have single combs but aren't true RIW. Anybody know what I have here? They are about 12 weeks old. Thanks!

They look more like White Leghorns to me. They are too slender to be RIW.

RIW indeed has the rose comb. It is not clear, frankly, how many true RIW there even are in existence, they are just that incredibly rare. Sorry.

The Conservatory places the number at less than 3000. Here's the link with good photos.

I was told by the seller that I will get brown eggs so I guess I might have to wait and see what I get for egg color.

Probably white rocks.

They are to slender to be white Rocks, I'd say they are White Leghorn pullets.
