What kind of Chickens do I have?

Enjoy the birds and you're probably good to go that you have egg layers.

Still very similar-Thanks for the photo. Makes me feel comfortable that I don't have Cornish X, curious to see how they mature. I'll post updates down the road.

Thanks

no they arent a cornish X.. Here is a pic of our ISA Brown that we purchased earlier this year with a cornish X. this pic what when they were both about 3 1/2 weeks

I E-mailed the Feed Store where I purchased them. I sent photos and explained my confusion over the breed, as they don't appear to be Cornish Cross; They contacted the hatchery and it turns out they are "White Laced Red Cornish". Not the perfect Egg Layers I was hoping for, but certainly better than the Cornish X I thought I had. Looks like they'll be fun to raise.

Thanks again to everyone for their input.

Can someone tell me what kind of chickens i have. They are standards, black with a green tint, orange legs, they lay eggs that are brown. If someone can help me please do, Thanks!!!!

The picture looks like a Rhode Island Red. Your chicks don't look like a RIR but maybe a RIR X?
