What breeds are these two?

[Inkisevidence]

I inherited two baby chicks this spring and they are both absolutely beautiful! They are 17 weeks old. The brown one is the friendliest chicken I have ever had. The white one is silky soft. Love them both! Anyone have ideas about what breeds they might be? They were originally purchased from tractor supply.

you will see glimpses of my other chickens in these photos, including my sweet little turken named Gherkin!

Are Novogen Browns the same as red sexlinks? I’m just wondering.

Novogen Browns are a cross between a Rhode island red and a Rhode island white, resulting in a sexlink. But because red sexlinks can be "made" by several different breeding groups, resulting in similarly looking birds, its nearly impossible to tell what a specific bird is a cross of. Novogen browns are a type of red sexlink, just a more specific name for them, among a specific cross.

The white ones a Delaware and the brown one is a red sexlink or Isa brown (red sexlink’s have a lot of different names)
