Determining their breed

[PRChickens]

We got some chicks for our barn to help with ticks and such. We got some bantams (among other breeds) but from what I've been reading there are different breeds of bantams. At what point can we determine what bantam breeds we have.

Posting photos now may yield identifications....for some, though it may be several weeks before definitive answers can be given. Number of toes, color of legs, whether the legs are feathered or clean, type of comb bud, etc are all part of sorting out breed

Not my photo but 3 of them look similar to this and 2 others have feathered feet yellow with a small dark brown spot/line on their head. but I dont have any good pics right now because the heat lamp messes up their color on my phone
