Surprise chicks-what are they?

[Searsmom]

As they've grown, they look more like Dorkings. Possibly silver leghorns, what is the way to tell those two apart?

Dorkings have white/pink skin/legs and red earlobes. Leghorns have yellow skin/legs and white earlobes.

Interesting breed. I had 12 leghorns and a rooster. They did have yellow skin and white earlobes and they're great year round egg layers.

Ah, thanks! They have white earlobes, long yellow legs and four toes. Silver leghorns. They are so pretty with the mottled feathers and absolutely disappear into the shadows, wonderful camoflage.

X2 on both of the above counts.
