Speckled Sussex or Welsummer? 4-5 Weeks old

[MrsJerseyJets]

I’m estimating these chicks to be about 4-5 weeks old (we have had them for 3 weeks now and the farm said they were between 1-2 weeks). First picture (collage of 3 pics) we were told is a Speckled Sussex, and second picture was sold to us as a welsummer. I’m starting to think our SS is actually a welsummer lol. We are new to these breeds so would appreciate feedback from some of you who have more experience with these! I know they look very similar when chicks...should they still look this similar at this age? Thanks!!

Both look like Welsummers!

Thanks!! I think so too! I had a suspicion a week or 2 ago as their feathers started coming in, but now I'm getting pretty sure the Speckled Sussex is really a Welsummer lol.

I agree, they both look like Welsummers.
