Guessing Chick Breed - 3 Weeks Old

[aobrien905]

Hi,

I'm trying to guess the breeds of three of my 3.5 week old chicks. Two were "rare breed assortment" and one was "brown egg layer assortment" from Meyer Hatchery.

I am questioning the brown one, the golden one, and the reddish one. The others are Barred Rock, Delaware, and Splash Laced Red Wyandotte.

Help, please!

Here are pics of them from last week if that helps.

#1. What comb type? Could either be a Buckeye or Rhode Island Red. Buckeye seems most likely, as this is more "rare."
#2. This might be your other rare breed chick....though it could be a Partridge Rock, Barnevelder seems more likely. They're a bit rarer, right?
#3. Possible Red Sex Link (Meyer calls theirs Cinnamon Queens) or New Hampshire Red, both of which fit the bill for a brown layer assortment.

All very cute!
