I was supposed to have 1 gold sexlink and 1 light brahma. But they are starting to look pretty similar? Or is it just me? I thought the lighter headed one on the left was the gold sexlink, and one of the right (darker head) was the light brahma...





 
Do they like to look at themselves in the mirror? :)

Could they be Rhode Island Reds or New Hampshire Reds? I had chicks that were Rhode Island Reds, a New Hampshire Red, a Light Brahma and one Golden Sex Links and these chicks look like the RIR or NHR that I had. I'm not an expert, just going off of what my chicks have looked like.
 
I figured it might not be a light brahma since I didn't see leg feathers, and either is fine, as long as no roos! New Hampshire Reds are pretty! Someone else thought one of them might be a "production red', a bit of a mutt RIR. I thikn the store mixed up the shipment. Next time I will go to the local hatchery where they do a better job...
 
They look like rhode island reds to me! Here's mine as a chick.

Maybe, I have one RIR, but the one has a much yellower head, time will tell...
 
And yes, chicks LOVE mirrors! They sing to it, cuddle it :)
 
Also- one has white ears and one has tan, different breed?
 
They do look like the same breed. You'll find out when they feather out more in a week or two.

They grow up so fast!
