Hello,
2 questions:
1. Is there a particular website that you’ve found to be better than others with broad descriptions of various chicken breeds, that also has pics of the breed at various life stages?
2. Received 11 healthy, happy chicks from Mt. Healthy yesterday. Is it possible to make a reasonable guess as to which chicks may be which breeds from the attached pic? I believe the single male that I ordered, a Bielefelder, is the light yellow in the top left corner with the dot on its head. The eleventh chick was a bonus chick and I’m guessing it’s either a Bielefelder or Welsummer since there are 3 that have the chipmunk type pattern. Here is what was ordered:
Male:
Bielefelder
Females:
Bielefelder
Welsummer
Splash Marans
Barnevelder
Blue Copper Marans
Lavender Marans
Blue Rock
Rhode Island Blue
Blue Laced Red Wyandotte
Mystery bonus chick

Thanks in advance for any help at all!

Will do! I was trying to post the video of this so they could be better seen moving around. But my iPhone is not giving me that option where it usually does. Might be the website not allowing it? My parents are visiting this weekend and I’ll get one of them to help me with close up pics of full body. Thanks

Wow lavender marans. Is there such a bird?

Yes! I have one. I bought her from a Marans breeder here locally. The color was introduced by using lavender Orpingtons and then breeding back to keep the dark brown egg color and other Marans traits.
This is an older photo I think it was taken a month or two before she started laying. She now has a huge comb and wattles.😊
She was being treated at the time for bumble foot.

I have Blue Marans and a Black Marans. They are friendly birds. Good luck.
