Good evening.
We have some 5 week old birds and are unsure of the breeds. Bought them at TSC, a pair of each type (RIR, Barred Rock, Rustic Rock, and Black sex-link), but what's throwing us is that Google shows us the same image for a Rustic Rock and Barred Rock. What breed is the silver chested one and what breed is the spotted one?

Thank you!

Rustic Rocks are one of those fun hatchery-designed breeds that no one seems to know much about. And Google knows even less lol. They are probably a hybrid of Barred Rock and something else. I am getting some in a couple weeks and there is another recent thread with a couple week old chick pictures but since they arent feathered out it wouldn’t be very helpful. My guess is the barred one is the Rustic Rock. The first looks like none of the breeds you listed and I’m going to hazard and guess that it’s an EE because it’s from Tractor Supply
 
Looks the silver chested one might be your Rustic Rock?
