I promise I’m going to stop with this soon. However, someone mentioned something that sent me down a Google rabbit hole. These two are five weeks old now and were both bought from the same brooder at a local feed store. I think I deduced that they came from Hoovers. The feed store had been told that the lot of them were Cream Leghorns, but it became clear very quickly that one certainly is not. I emailed Hoovers and they said “Oh, probably an ISA Brown. Must have been sent by accident.” Then I realized that the other probably isn’t Cream Leghorn either. Someone elsewhere suggested she might be a Starlight Green Egger. And when I looked them up, I saw a variation that looked like both my girls. So what do you all think? Starlight Green Eggers?

Both fit well for Starlight Green eggers, although the white and brown one could be an ISA brown. Egg color will probably be a determining factor, but that's a long way off.
 
They both could be Starlight Green Eggers. The lighter one could also be a Red Sexlink and the other could be a Cinnamon Queen (specific Red Sexlink mix)
