Guess that Chick x2!!!

[jnckids]

These are the first 2 chicks we've hatched. I know who the mother and father are. I just thought we could have some fun and maybe I'll learn something along the way.

***Update*** Same rooster, different hens.

See if you can name the breeds.

This chick hatched on 3/12.

This chick hatched 3/13.

I'm going to guess the Rooster is barred (either a Barred Rock, Dominique, or Cuckoo Maran). #1 looks like it is part naked neck and #2 I'm guessing is part d'Uccle or Sultan? How'd I do?

Except that both chicks are crested...
Rooster is probably some sort of mixed breed.
#1 clearly has a naked neck mother.
#2 must have parents with yellow skin, or at least each are carrying a copy for yellow skin. Very full feathering on the legs, so both parents have that gene, but the rooster isn't pure for it otherwise #1 would also have feathered legs.

agree

So here's the mother of #1.

Correct portion of the mother of #2 is feathered legs.

And the correct portion of the father is that he's cuckoo and feathered legs.

Chick #1 also had feathered legs, just to a much less extent. They just started coming in last week.

That chicken needs a scarf.

Still think the rooster is mixed breed. There is no breed with barring, crest, and feathered legs.

They also seem to have a lot of fluff still on them too. I can say about the father, if he is not pure than the mix is before his mother and father as they were both the "same" breed. I would agree that the possibility exists that he is not the purest of breeds as I don't know his pedigree before his parents or how pure the parents were.

This was my broody. She's their surrogate momma.

Here they are playing in the yard.
