What type of chickens do I have?

[ssafehavens]

Hello, friends! I’m Kay, a new chicken owner with my husband, Michael. We have 4 chicks who are nearly 4 weeks old. The issue is when we bought our chicks at our local Tractor Supply, they only said “Pellets”. They are sexed laying chickens, but I have no clue of the type we own. Since we are so new, we thought that pellets were the name, but I guess not! I’ve attached a few photos, they’re horrid quality because our girls are runners!

Also, are these girls confidered fully feathered? I’m thinking no because of their heads, but my husband thinks otherwise!

Welcome to BYC! I bet the sign said "Pullets" meaning they are female. I can't help with breed...I'm sure someone else will be along soon to help with that!

Haha no worries! It's definitely a steep learning curve on here! We got our first flock this year, and I'm pretty sure I've spent at least 3 hours (not an exaggeration) on here every day since we got them, but I've learned a lot! No matter your question/problem, someone on here has an answer for you! It's also great because you get to hear everyone's opinions and choose what you believe will fit you best!
