I couldn’t resist grabbing a few chicks today. Most were bought to add to into my sex-linked and colored egg layer projects. I got a CCL, 1 barred rocks, 1 diamond something or other that should lay green but looks like a barred rock, a white leghorn just because, a gold laced Wyandotte, and a...
The one with the chipmunk stripes is a bantam of some sorts and the other two are from big, full-sized, healthy eggs.
The breeder herself hasn't kept track of the eggs and mixed them all up. She also said they were purebreeds, but I'm not sure. Could anyone help me ID them? They're all very...
I haved a wyandotte, Easter Egger, and a buff orpington. My first two dont have what I would consider distinguishable coloring to their feathers at 1.5 months old. I am curious as to what they will look like as adult hens. When will they get their full coloring and feather patterning?
So from previous posts I’ve come to realize TSC isn’t the most reliable for gendering and breeding right, but as the chicks are getting older I bought what I thought were 7 Easter egger pullets and I’m thinking there’s some mix ins for breeds which is fine it’s just interesting to watch them...
Hello! I have a “free additional chick” from a hatchery and I still have no idea what breed it might be. He/she is about 3 weeks old or so now. Does anyone have any ideas on what breed he/she might be?? (Ignore the white leghorn in the brooder box with him/her haha) 🥰☺️☺🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hello! ☺️ I ordered some bbs chicks and it was too late to have the hatchery mark them, so I am very confused and I have no idea which is which. 😩 I’m splitting the order with someone so I don’t want to give them the wrong ones! They all look the same to me lol. They are ALL BBS (blue black or...
Today i got four baby chicks from tractor supply. This one was supposed to be a straight run EE, but looks like a red jungle fowl chick. I’m not really sure. If it is a jungle fowl, can i return it? I added some pictures below. Thanks everyone :)
EDIT: I forgot to mention my tractor supply was...
EDIT: better pictures added
Hi everyone, I'm a first time chick owner so I need some help with ID. I bought australorp pullets from TSC when they were about 2 or 3 days old.
They're now 3 weeks old and one girl is slightly larger with a much more yellow beak and larger comb than the others. I...

Hello!
Would anybody be able to help me ID my four new chicks?
We were sold 2x araucana and 2x mixed bantams and don't know who's who! Only one (orange/yellow chick) is smaller than the rest. All about 2 weeks. Thanks 😊
hello all! I am raising my first batch of chicks and now that their feathers are coming in I’m trying to ID breeds. I got a rainbow layer mix and I think I have 6 or 7 different breeds, but I’m not positive. Also i’m pretty sure they’re all pullets but i don’t know how to tell. Please help!

Hello All,
Our local kindergarteners hatch chicks every Spring. They usually find a good home with one of the teachers or a brave parent, and this year was no exception - except that, once the shavings settled, there were two littles left behind. The children all know that I have chickens, so...
1 2 3 Hello :)
As many of us have done this time of year, I walked into Tractor Supply to buy feed and walked out with 4 chicks! Lol
All were “assorted bantams”. They all have clean legs and 4 toes. All about 2 1/2 weeks old. One I have already ID’d as a golden sebright The other 3 I’m really...
hey all! I purchased a rainbow pulllet pack of 10 and a random late hatch of 5 from Meyer Hatchery. There are a few we having difficulty identifying, wanna help us?
The first is what I think is a lavender Orpington...possibly.
We got a few yellow chicks but one is so light, it almost looks...
So I got new Bantam chicks yesterday at tractor supply but they didn't know what specific breeds they were. These girls are about a week and a few days I believe and there my first Bantam chicks.
At first since they have feathered feet I thought they were mille fleur d'uccles but I'm having...
I thought these 5 week old chicks were cochin bantams, but then I read a thread that said all cochins have yellow legs. These two both have dark legs, and one looks like it may be a frizzle. Both are supposed to be pullets. Thank you in advance for any input.
I’m the happy mother hen to 20 fluffbottoms who will be 4 weeks old in a couple of days. I purchased the Ornamental Layer baby chick assortment from Murray McMurray and have been trying to identify several of the breeds. So far I have identified for certain:
1 buff laced Polish
1 gold laced...
