Welsummer or Partridge rock?

[leghorn]

Well I did get an extra chick with the order, but I have at least 3 with the slate colored legs. So I don't know what is going on. I am sorta bummed out that if I did order Partridge rocks and these are NOT... then I am definitely disappointed in the hatchery.

Especially since I had to wait 3 months to get them!

Well, its a hatchery, my dear and that is what you will get. They do not breed by the standards.

Wouldn't that be considered false advertising?

 

[EweSheep]

Yeah, it does. The same for Ameraucanas and Araucanas, too.....when they are not. They are really Easter Eggers.

that is most definitely a barrel rock mixed with a welsummer. I have two roosters one is barrel rock and one is buff. Orrington and the hen is a well summer and this is how her baby hen looks like now at 12 weeks. She also has the gray feet but she looks more like a well summer.
