    Black Australorps?

    I picked these 2 up at my local TSC in a bin that was labeled Black Australorps and Ameracaunas. Is there such a thing as splash Australorps or do black Australorps have this much white as chicks? They seem to have a lot of white and their legs are black but they have pink/white feet.

    Brahmas or Cochins?

    I picked up this pair of feather-footed cuties from an unsorted group of chicks at the Rural King a few days ago. The sign had several possible breeds listed, including Brahmas and Cochins. One is a little bit darker/grayer than the other, but I *think* they're the same? Thoughts on breed and...
