My Exchequer Leghorns were black with white flecks though.  Otherwise I would have said they were Exchequers, but doing a bit of googling, Exchequers can come in different colours like many other chook breeds!    :blink:

here, if you read this you will find that they can change their colouring in their second season and become lighter or darker  :)
Staffies are softer than you think.
