Ideal is my favorite place to get chicks from, sometimes they sell bantams for really cheap, about $1 each. Not that you needed to know that lol They don’t list blue Rosecombs on their website so it might be a blue Wyandotte

Haha me too, I said "only 8" I'm up to 22 too!they order from Ideal so the breeds that jump out at me are Buff Brahma and and Mills Fleur D'Uccle. I almost ordered some but with minimum order requirements and shipping charges i decided to buy local. Originally i only wanted to get 8-10 at most. Well.... I have 22... So now I really can't order a big shipment without my husband taking my bank card and locking it up. Although it's so tempting.![]()
I just received my Mille Fleur bantam yesterday and he looks just like your #1 and #2, looks like they have feathered feet too? He's so tiny compared to the Mottled Cochin bantam who's the same size as the standard chicks. Lol, I didn't tell my husband either until they were here a full day. I named my Mille Fleur "Teeny Tiny". There he is at the top all by himself.
Lol! Not helping. I did notice that Myer can ship as few as 3 but Arkansas law says chicks have to be sold a minimum of 6 per purchase. We would have to build a new co-op and run for 28 though so I really can't do that right nowYou CANNOT have only one Belgian d'Uccle!! Get more immediately!You must have more!

I won't keep many roosters. I will keep 2 of my silkies and my absolute favorite cochin "Harry" for sure.You might need a batchelor pad for the roosters if you plan on keeping them. And homes for the chicks the broody hens will want to raise. The good thing is that once one goes broody others might follow so if they get along you might be able to get away with them “sharing” a few chicks
