RIR, New Hamp, or Cinnamon Queen?

[J-Habs]

Tractor Supply had RIR, New Hampshires, and Cinnamon Queens all in the same bin. I'm leaning towards N.H. based on what the internet says, but I'd like some more opinions. She won't stop eating, so that is another possible clue she's a NH since they're dual purpose.

RIRs are a lot darker, more red than yellow/buff at hatch than that so you can cross that off you list.

I have a Cinnamon Queen and she had chipmunk pattern at a few days old, but those are sex linked hybrids and may not all look the same.

I haven't had a New Hampshire Red so I can't say either way on that breed.

Thanks! Ya, I kinda ruled out the Rhode Island. That at least helps.

It's not a RIR or NH. Maybe a Cinnamon Queen, the type that are red and white and are basically the same as any number of other red sex link brands like Golden Comet.

However, the chick's wing feathers look buff colored, not white. At least in the picture. So it could be some other breed or hybrid.

That's a Rainbow. Hoovers' ranger type. Dual purpose but leaning towards the meat side for priority rather than the egg side.

Well, if it is a Rainbow or Ranger, it wouldn't be the first time TSC advertised the wrong bird. This chick won't stop eating. Probably is a Ranger meat bird.
