2 Baby hens, 1 crazy baby hen and a cuddly baby rooster!

Meet Nugget, again named by kids Very quiet and loves being with Goujon. Gets on with all. Makes cute little whistle noises the others don’t. Starting to like the dog and loves sleeping in arms! Is a bit clumsy and daft, doesn’t like loosing the others.
Has tuft on head and feathered feet. Again ideas on breed or helpful hints, learning as go!
Thanks all!!

Just a heads up. When the hormones hit, his demeanor may change drastically. When he gets to be around 12-15 weeks of age, watch for the change. He will become far more interested in the pullets and may perceive of you as a threat.
He will not be quiet. I've never had a quiet cockerel/rooster.

Damn hormones! Thanks

I think you may have more than one cockrel. Id wait a few more weeks to be sure..
MJ looks like a cochin or a cochin mix, Cindy is probably the same. Goujon looks to have some cochin and some silkie in him. Nugget looks the most like a silkie.
Good luck with your beautiful little flock!
