Thank you!!

These are the Golden Starfish, Silver Mermaid and Barred Rock chicks. The Golden’s have the little “Mohawk”

The one rooster was merely by accident, I may possibly end up with another in the mix that I have. I do believe my Goldens and Silvers are a hybrid from my gal here that does breeding. They are all chicks as of now but I’d be happy to share some photos!
