In the Brooder
Hello I ordered the mcmurray choice package of 25 chicks. I have a lot of doubles and quads. I figured out a few but I'm wondering about some others. A little help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

It is hard to see your birds clearly, a side shot without the heat bulb would be best.
It looks like the first is a gold laced Wyandotte, then possibly a Rhode island red, the last one is either a welsummer or a partridge colored breed.
Hi!
That first one looks like Golden Laced Wyandotte to me. The last chick is a Welsummer. I don't know about the other ones, maybe with some better pics....? The white one is really pretty, though. You definitely scored with some little cuties! Now you just have to hope that they are hens.
Good luck!

The first one, I'm not sure, but it looks like a pullet(so far)
I thought it looked more like a mottled houdan...Do they look similar(White crested black polish and mottled houdans) when they are young? Because it looks very similar to my mottled houdan when she was young...Sorry I'm just a little confused..That fourth chick is without a doubt a White Crested Black Polish. Sweet little thing. I just love their poofy heads!

The second one looks like a White Cochin...where there any bantams in the mix? I don't know if they put standard bantams in the choice mix, do you?
The third chick, I think, is a Silver Pencilled _____. I recognize the coloring but I am not sure on the breed. Does Mcmurray offer Silver Pencilled Rocks, Wyandottes, or any other breed?
