No, if you can get a clear picture of its comb you can tell this age. Most hatchery Easter eggers have beards and this one does not, so I don't think it's an EE.

Here is a better shot of its face. And this is excellent information thank you!

That's a single comb, and it's a OEGB

d'Uccle have beards and pea combs, Cochin do not.

So this one is probably cochin, I think? No beard and I believe single comb.

Thank you so much!! I think they're beautiful birds. I can't wait to see what its colors are as it grows up.

Apologies, d'Uccle do have single combs. I confused myself with another breed on another thread for a second.

And that chick looks bearded to me. He's got some extra puff around his face.

You can tell comb type right from hatch, but it's often difficult to photograph right when it's teeny. If it's a pea comb, the comb area will be flat with with no obvious points. Single comb will have the little points already.

Thank you for this! It's very helpful!

I've been one big state of confusion trying to figure them out, lol. No worries at all.

So that would make it a likely porcelain d'Uccle? I need to practice identifying bearded vs not.

I would say it's most likely d'Uccle.

Thank you so much for your patience and your help. I adore these babies, no matter what their breeds or genders. But having an idea of what they are is nice.
