Anyone? Thank you!

My neighbor's cat and dog went after a nest of newly hatched quail, and killed the parents and most of the chicks. She rescued two and called me to take them, since we have chickens. I have them in a brooder under a heat lamp with water and finely ground all purpose poultry food. It may be a few...

Anyone?

This is Phyllis (partridge) and Goldie (buff). They are around 10 weeks old from what I was told. I see no sign of a comb at all on either. Was I lucky enough to get two pullets?

This is Iceman, white cochin, around 8 weeks. I'm thinking boy, what do you think?

Any ideas on these two? I was told they're about 5 1/2 weeks old. Thanks! Phyllis Goldie

Thanks for the help! Hopefully in a few weeks I'll be able to really figure out what he (or she!) is.

He is so much smaller than the other two banties that I got at the same time. Is there some other white feather legged breed that he could be?

The second one looks like a golden sebright maybe.

I'm brand new to silkies, and just got these two today. I was told that they are about 5 weeks old. I'm wondering about guesses on sex, and also coloring. I'm guessing the one is a buff, but the other seems to have a lot of black mixed in as well. Help please! Chick #1 Chick #2

Got this little guy out of a mixed banty bin at Coastal. I'm pretty sure he's a white cochin, but could these be frizzle feathers I'm seeing?

Here are all three. From my research, I thought from left to right: red cochin, white cochin, mystery. I couldn't find any pics of reds that had the head markings this one does. Do they sometimes?

Hello all! I picked up a few banty chicks from an assorted bin. The store orders from both Welp and Dunlap. I'm 99% sure we've got a red cochin and a white cochin, but this little stripey one has me stumped. He/she does have feathered legs. Any ideas?

Hmmm. After looking at some google images, it could be a Partridge Rock chick. One of my broodies is a Partridge Rock, and I'm planning on sneaking her a couple of chicks. Maybe she'll have a mini me! I'm fairly sure it's not an Easter Egger, as there doesn't seem to be any cheek puffs, but who...
