Hi guys! How can I find out what breed my girls are? I don't know how important it is to know, but I would like to either way...
Thank you!

They could potentially be Rex's also. There's not a vast difference in appearance but they do have different genetic make up.

The "farm" you adopted them from? Are you sure they weren't breeders?

@PigglyWiggly29 they have many kinds of animals that are boarded there...their mission statement is to educate children and adults about farm life and the animals that make life possible...they do programs like chick hatching, among others...

Sounds like 4H. Part of their focus is on breeding stock.

4H is an organization that focuses on educating children about agriculture including animal science. One of the programs is about "responsible" breeding. They have competitions each year so the kids can show off what they learned.
