Hello! A couple of weeks ago we purchased 7 chickens from our local Tractor Supply. In the past we have had Rhode Island Reds, Lavender Orpingtons, and bantams. It's been a few years, we moved and decided to get started back up.
They had Sussex, Wyandotte's pullets, Golden Sexlink pullets and production blue.
We chose:
1 Production Blue
2 Golden Sexlink
1 Wyandotte
3 Sussex
.... Or so we thought. Now that we've had them a little while I'm noticing the sexlink do not look how I think they should and sussex are different from each other. This led me to look up pictures and none of the breeds look how what they should. I am hoping someone can help me find out what kind we have!
The 1st picture is of the "Wyandotte pullet". I do believe she is a pullet but not sure if she's a Wyandotte.
The 2nd & 3rd picture is of the "Golden Sexlink" pullets. I have 2 of these. Both of them are coloring up just like the so called Wyandotte.
The 4th & 5th picture is of the "Production Blue". He (we think he's a roo) is a blue color but has some red on his chest.
The 6th, 7th & 8th picture is of the "Sussex". I have two of these that look black with some white spots on the wing, chest and under chin. They have an odd comb. Not sure if it's going to be a strawberry comb, cushion or something similar.
The 9th & 10th picture is of the 3rd "Sussex". This one is pretty much solid black. A tiny bit of white under the chin. Has a single comb.
