What kind of chickens are these two please?

We recently found these two without their mom and took them home. We would love to know what type, maybe age....... they might be?
Thanks all.

Ones is for sure Barred Rock (black and white one)
other looks like a EE (easter egger)
Looks like a easter dump off.

Agreed!

 

[alekos50]

well it sounds unanimous. Great! Could anyone take a guess at their age please?
Thanks again

 

[greenfamilyfarms]

They look around 4 weeks old.

thank greenfamilyfarms. OK, well now I got to find out all I can about these 2, since I'll be keeping them.

I really appreciate everyones input.

It's good they found you.

At their age, they should be eating a chick starter/grower until about 16 weeks of age. Since you have the 2, you can probably get a 25 pound bag of it for a reasonable price.

Yes, we got that type of food from the nearby feed store. We showed him the pictures from the camera and that's what they suggested. they didn't know what kinds of chickens they were, so I'm really glad you all told us.
Thanks

I love nice people who take in stray animals... thank you for your kindness! (I'm sure the chicks appreciate it, too.)
