They are silkie mixes, possibly with cochins.

Went out to get some photos of how they stand and their leg feathers better because I haven’t been thinking Cochin the more I look at them.. at least not the smaller ones. They look to have a different body shape than the older white and brown smooths. I had also found the original ad they came from and messaged the previous owner. He told me they were Silkie x Frizzle, I know frizzle is seen as a feather type (like curly or straight hair) in the US but in other places it is considered a breed. I had mentioned that and brought up the possibility of Cochins if that was maybe what the frizzle side was but he turned that down. Are there any other breeds they resemble or certain things to look for that might point me towards answers? Thank you everyone for all the help, I appreciate your input!

There’s a lot of photos of them out today, no individual shots as the weather turned south.

These two are roughly 18 weeks old now! I know the white birds are hard but I reduced the brightness on the photo from above so I hope that helps!
I’ve still been thinking they are both pullets? Please tell me I’m right
Thank you!

Both pullets.

That makes me confident that the rest are pullets as well.. thank you!
These girls sure are fiesty, if I didn’t know any better I’d be worried they are all males

I said i was confident but I want to be sure ... please tell me these 4 are also pullets, ages are between 14-16 weeks
Thanks again for the help!

I see all pullets there too. The only rooster is the one with the big red comb a few posts up.

They have really blossomed nicely.

Your little roo made me giggle with his crest. He is a funny guy. I mean that in the nicest way. I like interesting birds and he is all kinds of interesting.

Thank you!! He’s got the cutest personality, if he doesn’t like you touching him he will stomp his feet
Unfortunately his comb is causing some issues (talked about in a thread in the emergencies section), but his “eyebrows” and crest have filled out and he’s even cuter if that’s even possible

Edit: whoops wrong photo
