I went to the feedstore today to get feed. Of course I had to go stare at the chicks. I had no trouble passing up the first 8 bins of chicks & then I got to the 99 cent "pan fry special" bins. It looked like a mix of red & black sexlinks & some white colored chicks. The black sexlinks looked to be all roos (little white spots on their heads). There were a few misc chicks mixed in and this gray guy stood out, mainly because he was sitting off by himself. My first thought was they had to be all roos despite the sign that said they were straight run. Then I thought maybe someone put him in the bin by accident. Either way I couldn't resist getting him & then of course I had to pick out a buddy for him (also a pan fry special). I think they are both EEs, they have puffy chicks and their legs don't appear to be pink. ***OK the second one does have light colored legs. What do you think & is there any chance that maybe they could be hens? I've never bought out of the "pan fry" special bins before.
First two pics are the little gray one I couldn't pass up (it has a little red coloring above it's beak).
The next two pics are of his friend I picked out.
