Hello
So, I have two chicks right now that I am really interested in getting opinions on.
My favorite, Pita, is the largest. Which I'm sure means little as they are mixes. He (or she) is a week and a half old. But he's feathering out so quickly compared to the others. However, he has very pullet-like coloring. I know at this age it's all guessing. Especially since the parents breeds are unsure. But I'm interested in opinions.
I was thinking of the choices he may be a cream crested legbar mix? That's solely based on coloring and the breeds she has available. I'm not sure.

The second is Duo. The coloring of this one is super unique. So I've been thinking that she is going to grow into a cockerel. But, again, it's super early. She's also a week and a half old.
She possibly has SL deathlayer or white leghorn in her. Those are the only two white-ish breeds she has.

Any good guesses? Lol
The first three are Pita.
The next four are Duo.

I'm not sure what little pitas parents look like. The lady is a breeder and has all pure bred breeding stock but the ones who aren't in the breeding pens she lets together and interchanges them out. So they could be from a list of breeds including marans, beilfelders, death layers, cream crested legbars, leg horns, welsummers, barred rocks, cinnamon queens and I may be missing a few

She lets those ones have "barnyard mixes " that she sells seperately

Alright
I know my boys parents
Was wondering what feather colouration he'd have since mum and dad are opposite colours

Do you have photos of your boy? I always pick roos. Lol. Out of the nine we got this one stuck out to me. I thought maybe I'd get lucky since his color is a little feminine lol
