I'm wondering if this one might be a white frizzle cochin?

She/he is hanging in there. She had so much poop on her butt when I bought her, that I had to trim feathers and put bluecoat on her. She is much tinier than the others. She eats and drinks, and poops, though. I hope I can keep her alive.
Anyway if she is a frizzle, that means I have at least 3 out of 11 mixed bantams.
 
I think I might have two frizzles. I bought the remainder of a bin of bantams Tuesday. Ive never had bantams before. (They had awful pasty butt and a couple had died, so I had to do it.) They are right around a week to a week and a half old, judging by when the store says they recieved them. Ideal has red, white, and black cochin frizzles. I believe I have two reds.

Excuse our poopy mess. They may be small, but their messes are mighty and frequent!
Well, I can not wait to see what they are. So, how long will it take? I read the answer some days ago, but don't remember. I surely hope it isn't months and months. I am giddy with excitement.

Hope you start your own thread about them. I'd surely follow.

Looking at them this morning, I'm certain that I have 2 reds and a white. I'll tag you when I start a thread for identifying these bantams.
 
figured I would update about my ebay egg hatch. I received 22 eggs. 18 of those started to develop. At lock down I thought 1 of those quit but wasn't 100% sure so left it. Well I had 16/18 hatch. One was a late quitter and honestly I haven't even checked the one I thought quit before lock down besides to candle and know it isn't viable. They hatched between Wed morning and this morning.

This ebay seller is amazing! I got 12 from her before and 10 started and made it to lockdown and 10 hatched.


I have 2 blue Frizzle project chicks (they are Cochin/EE crosses the breeder has been working on. They look like Cochins but lay green eggs) that hatched from my last batch of eggs from this seller. One has feathered out quick and is beautiful!!!! The other is feathering slower so doesn't have as much "poof" yet. LOL wonder if I will get any others from the group that hatched yesterday and today! They are so cute!!!

I will have to grab some recent pictures of them. They are 4.5 weeks old

Congratulations! Awesome hatch!
I'm dying to see pictures of the blue frizzle chicks. Blue is my favorite chicken color!
