We bought 6 pullets (hopefully) from TSC (now about 10 weeks old). 3 brown/red and 3 white. We suspect maybe the white ones are Leghorns, but what are the reddish ones? Any idea? Here is a pic of them at about 7 weeks. Anyone spot an obvious rooster? There's one with bigger waddles and comb (a white one) but I don't think I have a good picture of it. Thanks!

The below picture is more recent, 10-11 weeks:

The 3 that are red and white are sex-link and 2 that are all white could be White Rocks (if they have a single comb) or
White Wyandottes (if they have a rose comb)

Hi Chris--thanks! the white ones' combs are all pink-white like in the picture except for one of them (perhaps an early bloomer...) that has a comb turning rose-red (it's a larger comb than the others too).
 
single and rose comb are the shape not color.
A agree with Chris on the breeds.

Aha! Well I feel awfully silly then :-). Definitely not the rose comb shape, that's for sure though.
