About 5 month old pullets from Atwoods. They didn't know the breed.

So we have yellow clean legs, single combs, what appears to be a cream colored egg if what is shown in the second photo is what is being produced by them.... and varying degrees of blue feathering interspersed with red feathering and some hackle markings... but the markings and feathering is similar but not consistent from one bird to the next..... as they were sourced from a farm supply store chances are there one of the many different production hybrids hatcheries offer
 
Their white earlobes aren't very conspicuous, but I think these are Leghorns. Hoover's sells what they call blue breasted brown Leghorns, and Meyer's sells what they call blue partridge Leghorns.

The hatcheries don't sell many layer hybrids whose eggs are white. It's just not a very popular color. California Whites are the only one I can think of, offhand.
 
Can you get pics without the red light?
Actually, it's not a red light :) They are red on the wings, gray backs, clean legs, single comb, and so fat I'm getting 2 eggs a day in various shades of light to dark cream - almost brown but not quite. I've had lots of chickens but these are confusing me :rolleyes:. They're pretty heavy bodied for what I know of leghorns; similar to the Rhode Island Reds and Austraorps I've had. I suspect they are the generic Easter Eggers, only they aren't laying colored eggs (yet???).

Ah, the first pick looked like a red light was shining.
