So, my hubby and I picked up some supposed-to-be Starlight Green Eggers from TSC. However, they were in a bin with Calico Princess chicks. Neither of us could tell the difference between the 2 breeds, and when we asked, the guy mumbled something about darker feathers on the backs as he grabbed out 2 chicks for us. After we got home, I did a bunch of googling, but as far as I can tell, there isn't a breed standard for either breed and the chicks can vary in looks a LOT, and some of them look identical to each other, even on Hoover Hatchery's website (TSC supplier). Soooo...does anyone have experience with those 2 breeds? Is there a way to tell them apart? These are the 2 chicks we got (along with others of a different breed!), one is darker and 1 is almost the same color as a Buff Orpington chick we got.
