TSC got me. I don’t have much experience, period, certainly not with bantams. I think I’ve id’ed most of their breeds but can’t figure out a few.

The red and black one, the yellow and that black and white turd. The last has been soooo slow to feather in!! They are all around 5 weeks now.

First chick is a Buff Brahma. Second chick is a Porcelain D'Uccle. On the last chick, I'm not quite sure what he is. At first glance, I'd say he's a Light Brahma, but I'm not 100% sure.

I have three other porcelain d’uccles that look fairly different from this one. It’s buttery yellow?

Light Brahma was my best guess on the last one, too. They (there are two, just one pictured) didn’t start getting feathers until nearly 4 weeks old!!!

They come from TSC, so quality is definitely missing, which may be why it looks so different. On both of these, I'd wait until they're older to see how they look after a few weeks. (Feel free to update!)

If they are Brahmas, they are slower at growing, so that might be the issue. (Cockerels are slower at feather growth than females on some breeds as well.)
