Can anyone tell me what breed these chickens are? I have pics of a rooster and a hen here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/u/118470/azanne This site won't let me post the pictures directly. I got these chickens from Ideal as part of a surprise special. I was thinking they might be Sussex or Columbian Rocks, but their legs are black. Any thoughts?

Thanks!
Anne
 
Looks like you have a Lakenvelder pair!

hmm that's a tough one! I don't think they're colombian rocks, I would have said sussex but you said the legs are dark, do I see a hint of pink on the hens feet though? the roo looks quite a bit different from the hen, never seen anything like him but he's pretty
 
Thanks, everyone! After looking at some websites and pictures,I agree, I think they are Lakenvelders. I actually have 4 hens and the 1 rooster. I have been getting some white eggs lately, but since my chickens free range, I wasn't able to see who was laying them. Since my other hens are all brown egg layers, though, it must be the Lakenvelders.
