Sorry I reread my post it was a little confusing. Mine are spangled and they looked exactly like your chipmunky looking one. I am by no means a expert on identification, but i guess you wont really be able to tell until they start to grow up and feather out.
Sorry still somewhat new here. How do you find out how many members have a certain breed? Only reason I ask is I also have Russian Orloffs and don't know how to add my birds to the tally.
I have only one of the Russian Orloff's that I think might be male, but I think it is just kind of runty so it may still end up being a female. As for all the Cochin packing peanuts I think out of 20 I only have one or two that I think might be female and that is probably just wishful thinking...

Any guesses? Help sexing would be very much appreciated, as my wife does not want any roosters, and I am thinking that there are at least a couple of roosters here.
