What breed are is my new chick?

Rusty does look like a SS as others have said. Looks like our 3 did when we brought them home. Not sure of the others.

Thanks, I was hoping for a SS, but wasn't sure.

It is so confusing when they are babies. I ordered a SS and a light brown leghorn. One of the two died during the shipment, but I don't know which one it was and they looked very similar. I don't know that much about breeds, but I am leaning towad light brown leg horn because the feathers that are coming in do not have the reddish color that most SS have in the pictures I have looked at.

the SS will have pinkish legs that turn white
the leghorn will have yellow legs
the EE's most likely will have greenish legs or maybe slate

in your first post the chicks pictured are:
a SS
an EE looks to be a beardless one to
an EE
the leghorn is not pictured

Thanks, the leghorn must be the one that did not make it then. The two EEs both have green legs and Rusty's are pinkish. I guess I just thought SS would be more reddish. It amazes me how much they change from the way they look as babies.
