Barred rock chick.

[Montanomom3]

Yes it did survive.
Attached is a chick pic from that day.
The lavender on left and a blue leghorn project chick on the right.
Also a color I'm working on since they weren't in the states.
Of course out of probably a dozen different colors/patterns from that hatch thats the two my two kids picked to play with.
The two most important and hardest to get.

This is the lavender as a young pullet last fall.
She made it through winter and I still have her she should be laying but hasn't started yet. IDK what's up but I have a few that are holding out this spring.
I still have her parents so hopefully I'll get a few more hatched this year.

I saw some pics of lavenders in the UK so I had to create some. I love lavender birds.
The blues I've seen some pics from Australia. We have blue andalusians here that are quite simular but I'm a leghorn fan so I just need blue leghorns. There's no leghorns here that have the blue gene so I had to cross in a andalusian so I still call them leghorn projects. Hate using anything but 100% leghorn blood but had no choice with those.
Sorry for the sidetrack of your post.

She’s beautiful! And no i love to learn new things like this!

If interested I have a thread about my leghorns and some of what I'm doing with them.

BTW your darker chick looks like an Easter egger to me. When I saw them I was thinking it looked more like a typical EE then the lighter one.

You sound like me lol i was awaiting my next batch of eggs to start hatching last night and was sitting by our bator and kinda whistling to get the eggs to rock and turned around and my husband was videoing me and laughing

So do have some new chicks now?

I have 1 Black Copper Maran and 1 Lakenvelder out so far. I also have 4 other eggs that have either piped or have unzipped quite a ways. 2 more Black Copper Marans and 2 Bielefelders. Crossing my fingers they all hatch with no problem.

One of those is not a rir, could be a speckled Sussex?

Might be a red sex link? I don't think it's a SS, looks pretty different than mine of a similar age, Speckled Sussex are a darker mahogany brown and less red:

I emailed the hatchery and they and they are still saying both are Rhode Island reds... so I’m so confused

Cool.
I have a few due to hatch tonight or tomorrow. We'll see how it goes. I noticed 3 days ago that the turner had broke. No idea when it broke.
