Not exactly sure what she (really hoping she's A she) is. Polish/silkie/sultan? I am loving her feathers.

I'm still not sure what she is, but she's getting fully feathered. I'm thinking pullet. What do you think? I am very new to polish and silkies.

I'm in Portland, OR. I picked up some chicks from the small nursery/farm store a few blocks from my house. I had never heard of penedesenca before now. I took three of them home along with 3 others chicks I have raised before. My question is, since they are a more rare breed, how likely is it...

Hello, I have a few ideas of what s/he (hoping for a she) is, but nothing concrete. I was told it was a polish, but I'm thinking some type of cross, since there is an extra toe. Hoping it'll become more clear as it grows. Thoughts? The first 2 photos are from a week ago. The last photo is...

Thank you. I ended up with a pair of EE's and two breeds I have never raised before. This one, which I named Carlotta, and 3 penedesenca chicks.

Definitely a hen. Couldn't say for sure how old, but appears to be full grown. She's pretty.

I ended up with this little chick from a mixed box of breeds from a local nursery/city farm store. The clerk wasn't 100% sure what it was, but was thinking polish or silkie frizzle. I have never raised a polish or a silkie so I really have no idea. I'm thinking a cross maybe? Thoughts? I'm...

The chicken in question is definitely a roo. He hopped up on a fence this morning and crowed. His waddle is getting larger and redder and his coloring is changing a bit. A lot more rusty orange.

I thought he was a d'uccle at first, then settled on brahma. Since you mentioned d'uccle I started looking at pics of d'uccle chicks and wondering if that is what he is. I don't think I will buy breed assortments again. It's driving me crazy not knowing officially what they are, haha. If this...

Blanche, Sophia, Rose, Stella, Ellie, Cleo, Lucy, Beaker Speaker (my son's idea) Piper, Lizzy, Copper, Penny

I'm not sure what Juliechick saw to make her think roo, but the more upright stance, the redder and larger comb and what are staring to look more like pointy saddle feathers had me wondering.

It's definitely one of the more vocal of the bunch. I haven't heard it crow yet, but I will listen.

I'm hoping for a pullet. The BYC community spotted my EE roo right away. I am suspicious of one of the other little bantams too. Not 100% positive on it's breed so it's hard to tell.

My daughter picked out some bantams chicks at TSC. The buff brahma has always been quite sure of itself and pushes around the standard chicks twice it's size. I don't know much about brahmas in general so curious to see what you think. It's about 6-7 weeks old. Any thoughts...
