Chick Id help

[jimi79]

I put a post with some chicks we recently hatched but I figured I would put all pic on the same post or all my eggs in one basket so to speak. We got a batch of hatching eggs that we were told were all heritage breeds, and easter eggers. All eggs that hatched were with bluish or tan in color. I can't seem to identify any of these chicks. Can anyone help out. Our fear is we may have been mislead and that our variety batch was mixed breeds.

They are soooo cute!

The black and white ones are either australorp or black jersey giant. Did they tell you what heritage breeds they have? That puffy golden one kinda looks like a faverolle but the toes are wrong.

I asked and she carries neither of those breeds. They had barred rock, SS, RIR, silkie, EE, polish, SS Hamburg. Lav Orps and Lemon orps, BCM

They are adorable! I think you will have to wait until they feather out. Really hard to tell. Do any of the black ones have feathered legs, I could not tell from photos. If so may be BCM. I suggest you wait abut 2-3 weeks, when they have more feathers and then post each chick individually with a side photo.

The ones with the puffy cheeks though are likely EE.

No none have feathered shanks, I was almost curious if maybe they are a mixed group of orps. Been looking at chocolate, blue and black orp chicks pics reached out to the breeder to see if they get those colors. I agree it may take a few weeks before we know for sure. The EE we know for sure as they came from blue eggs

 

[jimi79]

Nope they say Lav and Lemon. No other colors.

The one little chick that is silvery with some yellow may be a lavender orp. Some of the yellow chicks may be lemon orp. Orpington chicks tend to be a little fuller figured then other chicks. Little round fluffy bodies. May help tell which one are the orps.
