What Bantam breeds are these chicks?

#4 does look close like a Barred Rock Bantam but I put the pictures side by side to young & adult pictures I could find. All the Barred Rocks seem to be more grey over all basically. This chick is really white, more white with thin grey stripes. She hasn't fully feathered so I'll keep watching her. I don't mind having a Barred Rock & I know each chick & chicken has their own differences in patterns etc so maybe that's it. The more white is just making me question it.

Well these silly chicks are now pullets & roosters, going to start looking for eggs in a couple of weeks. Last night the Rosecomb rooster aka Little Foot & the Belgian d' Anver pullet aka Sweet Cheeks went missing at dusk when my daughter went to lock them up. We searched the yard where they free graze but there was no sign. We were worried the neighbor cats or an owl got them. Nope they were back in the pen looking for food this morning. The Rosecomb greeted me by flying up to get almost eye level to me on the fence. Gonna have to watch them a little closer now. Thinking they were in a tree.




What mom, did we scare you?





The whole flock. 3 Gold laced Cochin pullets, 3 Buff Brahma pullets, 1 Rosecomb Rooster, 1 Barred Rock Bantam lead Rooster & 1 Belgian d' Anver pullet.
