Are these Columbian Wyandottes or some other breed?

Oh ok

I do not think these chicks are Marans. They sure are cute though.

Thanks! I'm pretty obsessed with them

Where did you get the chicks from? They look a lot like the baby Steele Eggers that Meyer Hatchery has

I got them from Tractor Supply...in a case that was labeled Columbian Wyandottes...I wouldn't trade them in as they're so sweet, but I learned my lesson on trusting the stores!

They're not Marans nor are they Orpingtons, they both have slate or white legs due to the white skin. The two in question look to be Sapphire Gems!

Interesting! Their legs definitely have some green (or darker) coloring to them and aren't all one color. I can probably get a better picture, but you can kinda see if you zoom in on the last photo of the one on my hand. It sounds like I may have 4 Sapphire Gems on my hands! That or the other two that I originally thought were Sapphire Gems aren't at all and are something else entirely, haha!

That's what I'm thinking as well!

You seem to be a pro! Hope you don't mind me asking you another question do you think this is also a Sapphire Gem? Or something else? And any idea on gender? Thanks for being so willing to share your expertise!

Looks like a Sapphire Gem too! If it is indeed one, it's 100% pullet too! Males are blue barred while females are just blue
