Golden Comets?

[LoupGarou]

I ordered a mix of Golden Campines, Welsumers, and Australorps from Ideal and got two light yellow chicks as a surprise (I'd ordered 25 and received 27). I was sure they were Golden Comets and assumed they were both boys and destined for the critter sale at the feed store. Now I'm not so sure about them--one seems to be a Golden Comet pullet and both have greenish legs?

Pullet?

Golden Comet?

Not uncommon for the hatchery to throw in some body warmers, yes, those extra "freebies" are often roos. Shrug.

 

[LoupGarou]

Yes, I know they throw in packing peanuts. That was not my question.

I'm sorry I can't answer your question (which makes this reply useless) but I just wanted to state how pretty they are!

The green legs make me wonder if Easter Egger is a possibility...?

 

[LoupGarou]

Thanks Caliphe--I think they look nice, too! rhs, I was thinking the same thing . . . anyone else with opinions?

 

[LoupGarou]

No other guesses? I'm just curious, more than anything, but it would be nice to know.

What kind of comb do they have?

I had golden sexlink pullets last year, they did not look like these, but I have rarely seen the roos.

Here are a couple of shots of the dark one:

and the light one . . . s/he keep trying to fly out of my hand (the other just stays still and screeches), but at least it gives you guys a good look at its feet.
