Breeds? Help?

[Jimagination]

Thanks all for helping. We will just have to wait. BTW, sorry I didn't read that one before I responded before. No, I just ordered Ameraucana's. I was thinking possible Leghorn, too. Is that rare?

No leghorns are not rare. I ordered 5 for my dad and I just thought they gave me 6, until I seen yours and you have same as me. I took a picture but my battery went dead so when it charges I will post the picture of it.

What about this

Andalusians. They are on McMurray's rare list and they have some that look similar....

Great site! Check out easter eggers-then chicks. There is one that looks just like my little yellow one near the bottom of page. Sorry I coucln't figure out how to paste it in here like you did.

You're right....Looks like mine too.

I was kind of hoping for something different than what I ordered as the "special" chick. Oh well, they are still cute!

 

[cockadoodlemom]

me too. Oh well this way they want be the oddballs!

I ordered three Amerucanas and just figured out who they are...easy to tell now since they all have blue legs. One is a typical Amerucana, one it all white and one is white with rust. They are 3 weeks old. Hope these pictures help you out.

Industrial Leghorns are not rare.

Non-industrial Leghorns on on the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy priority listing as Recovering.

Recovering: Breeds that were once listed in another category and have exceeded Watch category numbers but are still in need of monitoring.

Ok,the yellow ones look very very similar, and one of them has the bluish feet but the other, smaller one has peachish/yellowish feet. Make a difference in breed?

Just a thought...

When we ordered our birds from McMurray, we declined the free exotic chick.

They sent us 2 White Plymouth Rock chicks (we only ordered 1). On the invoice, the quantity for the WPR was 2.

Have you checked your invoice that came with the birds to see if any of the quantities are different from what you originally ordered?
