What breed are my chicks?

Here's another photo
Do they really look like cockerels? I'll be really upset if they are because they were separated and sold to me as laying hens!!

Unfortunately, sexing chickens is not like sexing a human baby, a newborn kitten/puppy, etc - the genitalia of a chick is such that even with close examination there is a 5-15% chance of getting it wrong (and this is with trained professionals doing the examination) - which means that "sexed pullets" always have the chance of being male, with the exception of sex linked crosses and auto-sexing breeds. Unfortunately, you have won the cockerel lottery here - great time to be that "one in a million" person, huh?
