I was given these two chickens from a family member. I’m trying to figure out what they are.

The brooder is a 4ft by 2ft stock tank from tractor supply. Everything I have read says that it is big enough for them. Is that too small? It's definitely not just one it seems to be all of them picking on each other. How do I fix boredom issues if it's that?
I don't have it ready yet i'm going...

Hello everyone, I just recently had a chick hatch and I was wondering if anyone could tell me what color it is. The "dad" is a Blue Splash Cochin, and the "mom" is a Silver Laced Cochin. I was told it most likely would be blue colored but, I wanted to post a picture of it, and see if anyone...
