Welsummer or what?

[Puranin]

I purchased 6 pullets about month ago. They were in an egg layer mix I have for sure an Australorp, 2 red sexlink, and a RiR but the other two I can't figure out. They are also quite a bit larger than the others. I was told that Leghorn and welsummer were both in there but they don't seem right to me. Any ideas?

Not sure, looks like a mixed breed

Could be a Norweigan Jaerhon?

Better (close up, side profile) photos of the bird in question are required and may need a few more weeks to be sure as leghorns and welsummers are very similar although leghorns are slighter built and will develop white earlobes whereas welsummers will have red.

I don't think those birds are leghorns or wellsummers.....

Yeah they're not looks like a mix to me.

Look like crossbreds to me. Not Leghorn or Welsummer that's for sure.

That's what I thought. That they were mixed. But I can't figure out what. As day old chicks they had the chipmunk stripes and all. They are fat little girls. 2x the size of the others and light brown almost buff. I'll take some better pics.
