I hatched out some ducks that I rehomed because I...

    So I have another question about my Polish that has a severe Crossbeak… I got her that way from my local tractor supply as a baby chick.

    What breed is this??

    I bought this girl 4/5 months ago. I bought 4 what I thought was leghorns. One is definitely a leghorn and 3 look like this. They’re not grey, not white but look like their dirty white chickens but that’s just their coloring. Any idea what breed these 3 are? Oh and they lay brown eggs.
