Find the Odd Ball? 1 BBS ameraucana 3 Black Australorps.

[MommaBee]

I have not ever had either breed before, so I am clueless as to what to look for. But I had one BBS ameraucana hatch and 3 Black Australorps. I can not even figure out which is the BBS, much less their gender. So here are all 4.

(The Black Australorps are 1-2 days older if that helps anyone and they all feather sexed out as pullets at a day old... i know that doesn't always work but they were the same looking.) Oh and can someone tell me why their feet are all different colors?



Chick #1- I ONE know this is a black Australorp, I remember it hatching out with freckles and more yellow










Chick #2- now that I look hard I think this one looks like the BBS, what do ya think?








Chick #3








Chick #4

Chick number two is the only one that looks to have a pea comb, so I would say that is the Ameraucana.

Ahhhh look at you! Now why didn't I even think to look for that.

So what do you think on genders? I know it is early... I won't hold ya too it.

Too early for me to take a gender guess. Post pictures again in a couple more weeks.

OK. Well some will be going to new homes in 2 weeks. I will need to know for sure by then. Maybe it will be late enough to tell by then. THANKS
