Several breeds have feathered legs. Are they chicks or full-grown girls? Did you get sexed or straight run? If the latter you may be having chicken soup in a few weeks--roosters.

Once they've gotten their feathers, post a picture and I'll tell you what you've got. Oh, and be sure to give them table scraps too, they love just about anything we eat and it cuts down on the garbage. Meat scraps, too--chickens are NOT vegetarians!
