The sign said Plymouth bardrocks but i think someone messed up

Sooooo. I've been raising 3 of what I thought were Plymouth bardrocks. They are now 7 ish weeks old, fully feathered, and look nothing like bardrocks. What are these. I have a hunch I might have barnavers or jersy giants. But I really don't know. They are supper cuddly and friendly. Intelligent and easygoing. What do you think this is. I swear cal ranch mislabeled these. They are from hover hatchery.

They are not Barred Rocks, I don't know what breed they are though.

That's for sure .

Definitely not barred rocks. Their colors are really pretty though.

I love them. So stinking sweet. Even sweeter than the olive Eggers and RIR and astrolorp I've raised.I think if I can find out what they are I'll stick with this breed.

Black Sex-links.

 

[Bigtom Turkey]

Yeah, black sex-link

They look like black sex links to me. Which is a cross of a barred rock and Rhode Island Red. If so then the two in the first photo are female.

Well I think that is right. I'm a little worried now. I heard that these are not cold hardy, I live in idaho . What do you guys know??

They're sold here too, & we live in Michigan which get brutal winters too. So, they must be cold hardy. They're pretty fluffy.
