I have 5 bantam chicks that I have bought from Meyer Hatchery and they were labeled as straight run grab bag bantam assortment. I am unsure of the breeds and genders , well I have ideas but maybe someone can help?? 6/30/20 the chicks were received and labeled as day old chicks and they shipped out day before I picked up the package so they are estimated few days old.
Any advice is appreciated! Thanks!
Also forgot to mention the chick that is largest I noticed is 5 toes and feathered legs starting but skin color is light not dark? And the other chick with feather legs is the small black one and that came with feathery legs and 4 toes, I did not count a 5 but I will double check.

I am not sure but they are ADORABLE!! :love

Lots of breeds look similar as chicks so you may want to post again in a few weeks when they get more feathers as it can be hard to tell.

But these are the bantams Meyer carries so hopefully this will help you narrow it down.

Looks to me though like you might have gotten a Cochin bantam, some Easter Egger bantams, maybe some Welsummer bantams, and the one with the big poofy head is a Polish.

Thank you! Yes they are super young but just wanted to get a head start and maybe some ideas going! I will definitely update !!
 
I have 2 5-toed Cochin crosses - one is a Black Cochin Frizzle Bantam and the other looks to be a Cochin Australorp Bantam mix - from the same hatchery.
