First, please excuse the mess. I stuck all of the chicks in a small coop while cleaning their pens and managed to spill a ton of chick feed in with them.

The smaller chicks are Buff Orphinton and Silver-laced Wyandottes. The quail looking chick is a Bantam chick my only Bantam hen hatched out. Looking for gender ideas on the larger chicks; the creme/white and black ones mostly.

This white/creme one I'm thinking Roo? Feel free to guess on breed as well. They were a hatch of random eggs. I do know that they came out of bluish colored eggs.

But the "twin" maybe pullet?

The black one here. I will be so glad when their feathers come in. Hate the naked look. It makes them look like reptile/chickens of some sort. Brown egg on this one.

About 100% sure this one is a Roo as he is the spitting image of one of my Roos. The larger chicken in the background is my Bantam hen. She hatched out 5 eggs, but took over ALL of the baby chicks. She's a good mum.

Here is the Roo he looks like (chasing my Jack Russell; they play all of the time except I don't think the roo is playing

) And brown egg on this one as well.

The skin under the feathers is light, whitish pink. Legs are sort of turquiosey in person. They also had muffs/beards when hatched. I'm guessing they will grow back in eventually.

Thanks! I was thinking EE for both of the whites as well. Think it is possible they are both pullets? *fingers crossed* I would love it if the black was a Giant but not so crazy about another rooster unless I can give away 2 of the Roos I have currently.
