What breed are my chicks?

post #1 of 30
Thread Starter 

I got 5 one week old chicks from Agway and two are bantams but I'm not sure what kind. Can anyone help me?

 

This is Cindarella.

This is Snow White.

I guess I will know for sure when they are grown up, but I can't wait!! My other three are GSL's.

Thanks!

Are Cindarella's legs feathered? Her color looks like a Dark Brahma. 

 

It's the shape that makes the breed, and the color that makes the variety.

Cindarella's legs are not feathered, they are dark. Snow White's are light, skin colored.

Huh, okay. Cindarella could possibly be a Black Sex-Link or a Golden Laced Wyandotte. I know I have seen other chicks like this but it's just not popping in my head.

Oh I would love if she were a Wyandotte!!! I originally wanted a Silver Laced Wyandotte, but didn't want to wait til July for a baby! But she is smaller than the other GSL's, she and Snow White are smaller.

I'm sorry, but I don't know what Snow White is. She's really cute also!

Well, thanks for trying! I'll post pictures as they grow and maybe we can figure it out then!

The first one almost looks like a gold Sebright to me....but that's a guess. I could easily be wrong. :)

 

Not sure about the second fluffy...very cute though!!
