Are these Calico Princesses?

[Mel281]

Looking for updates from my one who thought they had a calico princess. I’ve got a 1 week old that has dark markings coming in. What did yours turn out to be? I’ll update with a pic when I get one

Any updates on anyone's Calico Princesses? I've got one as well and she is quite a bit darker than many pictured on this thread. She does have barring on her thighs and I do believe she is a Calico Princess. Being that they're a mix, I imagine their coloring can vary a bit. My CP has definitely turned into a wonderful layer, even though she is still young. Any updates?

I purchased this one from a TSC "assorted colored layers", hoping for prairie bluebell eggers. What do you all think? They're all pretty friendly, but get handled on a regular basis.

I bought 2 at agway and they are the most calm laid back chicks I ever had. All they want to do is perch on my finger and purr at me. I can’t wait to see what they look like when they get older. I’ll take pics of them tomorrow.

For those of you who purchased this breed last year, how did they turn out??
I have four (4) in my flock, originally purchased as BO from TSC but they were mislabeled. They'll be three (3) weeks in my care as of this Thursday.
Lots of white, red, and black in their feathers.
Their legs at this point are like tree trunks as compared to my BO's skinny legs and I thought that indicated they were all roos, but another CP discussion said that with this breed anything other than white are pullets.
They are all very friendly and growing quickly, having already overtaken the BO's though they were much smaller to begin with.

At 5 weeks, I think I can confidently label mine as Wheaten Marans, due to their feathered legs and their patterns. I guess we shall see when they begin to lay!! If yours are clean-legged they may not be Marans.

Wow, another breed that almost fits the chick coloring to a T. They are also a breed that the hatchery does offer.
However, you're right, mine are clean legged which looks like it points to them not being that breed.

i have been following this thread since i purchased my calico princess chicks 5 weeks ago. i was told they were pullets but i'm thinking they are cockerals. does my pictures compare to anyone else who has calico princess breed? the bottom picture is of the pair and their coloring is different from each other. i have another thread posted on here and i was told it may be a new hampshire.
