Please overlook how dirty these girls are. This was the first day that we brought them home and the place we got them from was incredibly muddy due to copious amounts of recent rain.
Can anyone help me identify what breed of chicken these are? We were told they were white leghorn but after researching the breed I noticed the coloring in the legs and beak aren’t yellow like the typical white leghorn breed.
I’ve tried looking it up with no luck and I would really appreciate any assistance in figuring out what breed they are!
**additional question while I have some eyes- it is fairly cool where we live right now (day temps hovering right at 70 and night temps in the mid 50’s). Should I try to bathe them on a nice sunny day? This picture was taken the day we brought them home and were in the process of setting up their coop area so their new living quarters are decidedly much less muddy than where they came from. I just don’t want to make them sick, but I also hate seeing them so muddy and yucky.
