What Breed are these Chicks

That wasn't on the list of possibilities from the feed store....not to say that means anything...

but I just hatched out several Ameraucanas or we'll say EE's because of where they came from and I don't think they're EE's but wouldn't I love them to be!

That's a good observation. I guess that one slipped by me, it could be a BO, but as noted by a later post, it may be a RSL roo. Especially with that last pic you posted, its got a decent sized comb for that age. Just keep your

I will too that its a pullet

I agree with everybody else, looks like a RSL roo to me. I cant believe their supplier made that mistake! Pretty chicks you have, and dont feel to bad I ended up with 2 roos from the pullet bins this year! This was a first for me.

I'm going to talk to them today about the suspicious one. I've been buying pullets from feed stores for over 30 years and never got a Roo. The birds im posting here are from a group i just finished raising from a hatch from my own chickens that turned out to be half Roo's! That's why I went to the feed store to buy pullets!

I have the cockerels posted on the CA threads, maybe someone will trade me for some girls! LOL I seem to making a habit of collecting boys!

I'm sorry you're getting so many roos. On the plus side, most feed stores have a guarantee on sexed pullets. They say they will refund if less than 90% of your order is wrong. I had one male out of the 4 I ordered, so my order was only 75% percent correct, and the hatchery let me have a new female for free.

I agree with the RIRs and Sexlinks. The white chick looks like my White Leghorn pullet when it was younger. It's comb developed much earlier than the others.

here's a shot of one of my RSL, looks like yours...

I bought 9 "pullets" last year, they all ended up being ROOS...so I feel your pain, I sold them all and started all new...now I have 12 pullets, 2 roos, (these I suspected as such) and 2 unknown silkies...fun huh?
