Got my MacMurray babies!!

[Kezzie]

So (please excuse my newbieness), the yellow ones are EE's too? I have 3 EE's coming in my McMurray order next week. Might I also get chipmunks and light ones?

Yeah, that's the thing about EE chicks is they come in all colors. The little yellow chicks will grow up to be white and spotted white girlies. The chipmunk looking ones will be mostly red and the little tan chipmunks will be blondie EEs. Looks like I didn't get any black EEs in this batch.

Is he a lot smaller than the rest? I just got shamos from Ideal and the chicks look a lot like this one right down to the two-toned beaks. I never knew the chicks were going to be 50% the size of the ameraucanas that came with them.

Does he look like he has a crest on his head? (side view would be good LOL)

I whipped out my catalog, from what I can tell, he could be a White crested black plolish, if he has a crest...I need to do more looking to see what other black and yellow chicks are in the catalog....

 

[farmerlor]

Nope, no crest. The kids were a little disappointed because they were hoping for a Polish. I'm thinking he's a dorking.

Lakenvelder chick?

I'm looking at the MM catalog, and I agree it looks like a nice Lakenvelder chick. Lucky you~!!

Congrats on all your peeps.

OH thanks for posting this info!!!!! I just got my 6 EE on Friday:

I have:

2 of the chipmunk colored ones,

1 that is blond with just a little tiny bit of chipmunk coloring marks,

1 that is completely blonde,

1 that is chipmunk marked but mainly brown,

and the last one is a dark brown with a few markings....

What do the black EE chicks look like?

The little rare guy also looks almost identical to what I was sold as Anconas.

I would have to go check leg color though. They are all just beautiful!!!! Congrats on the cute and healthy babies.
