Cochin chicks! Girls (fingers crossed)and breed question?

[HazelandPearl]

Well our first two buff Orpington chicks were so hard to sex, we finally figured it out at 22 weeks with Mrs. Hazel! Let’s hope these girls are easier... also we were told Golden laced Cochin and Blue Cochin. The Blue Cochin is looking so light like a Lavender maybe? What are your thoughts. 4 weeks old. (I know still a little early but just curious on thoughts). Cross your fingers for Pullets!

Also adding the golden laced “Thelma” walks very up right and seems to be the more dominant one while little Louise (Lavender? one) is sweet and calm!

I’m thinking all pullets

It's too young for certainty but there are no cockerel traits so far. I would be curious to know what color is under the feet of the blue bird-- yellowish, or white/pinkish? The reason I ask is because the coloring, including the leg color, isn't right for a Cochin. It could just mean that it is hatchery quality or it could mean it is something else.

Oh yeah, they are yellow. She's definitely a Cochin, then. I think she's lavender or self blue, which are different names for the same thing. She doesn't look like regular blue.
