    My first loss!! What do you think it is?

    Buff Orp or New Hampshire Red?

    Hi..my chicks are about 3 weeks old....I have figured out the Rhode Island Red (I ordered 4 and I have four that look alike but they sure look more brown than red to me), and I have only three anconas so that was pretty easy as were the only two silver laced W. Now...my problem: I ordered 3...
