White Yokohama?

[Tcthomps1]

I found these 5 chicks at Tractor Supply labeled as Exhibition White Yokohama straight run. 2 if then have very clearly defined brown dots on their heads. Does this mean anything? Are they really Yokohama?

I looked it up and could not find any photos or images of Yokohama chicks with a brown dot. I'm not personally familiar with the breed. I guess you will find out Huh?

I will have you know that TSC NEVER will have exibtion quaility birds....never.. and they usally have incorrectly labeled bins... I am no expert on Yokohamas, but I wouldn't count on those chicks being that breed.

They’re too young to be sure of the breed.

They are very cute and I'm sure they will be beautiful what ever breed they are. Why the paper towels? I'd remove them, you don't want the chicks to peck and eat it. Just use wood shavings large enough that they won't eat it.

They were labled as if "exhibition" were part of the name, not a description of quality.

Because they are so young and tiny, just easier for them to walk. I will remove it in a comeof days.

Are ou sure it's not marker? Sometimes hatcheries put marker dots on some of the chicks...
They could also be Red Shouldered Yokohama, with small amounts of the red color.
