Help Identify Bantam Chicks

She has me stumped. It looks like she had a Halo though:love. I have heard that there are porcelain OEGB, but I highly doubt we would ever see one at a farm supply store. I can't wait to see how she turns out! (Please keep up the awesome updates!)


I keep thinking her coloring is porcelain! I agree, highly doubt TSC would carry such a new/rare color. It's very much like the other OEGB's, as the clean legs and feet, size, and the rate of growth. I did end up posting another thread but I'll definitely keep this one updated. Did you see my reply about your chicks? Somehow my reply ended up being part of the quote I posted, so I'm sure it can be easily overlooked. I truly believe that both of us lucked out with chicks this year! We certainly have some beautiful birds!

I hope you're doing well in the anticipation of our "lock down". Thankfully these chicks help bring smiles any time it's needed.
 
For what it’s worth I got French white Muscovy at tsc. In the cheap duck bin. And I would never guess that’s what would come out of there. So it could be something special. Also I wasn’t getting updates on your posts this time!

I do have an Easter egger that is a very similar color and I’ve read they have bantam EE as well.

I have a couple of bantam EEs! All of my standard EEs are varieties of oranges and browns, but the bantams are white and cream with grey (Kole) and white with some black (Scaredy Cat). One lays blue, the other green.

I’m so excited. These are my first and I have a friend that is giving me a roo. Hubs said I could try a little breeding. I’m way over excited about it ahha. Wish I could speed up the incubator. I’m also way too excited about that.
 
On the other post I made, someone suggested a Lavender Orpington Bantam. She's too white to be a lavender orpington though. Privett does have Eater Egger (of course they call them Ameraucana's) Bantams, so she definitely could be. I chalked her up to that, but then I thought about the lack of muffs, etc. They are just mixed breeds, so that certainly wouldn't ring true for all, plus, that's for the standard size. It will be fun to watch and see what becomes of this chick! For now, I'll consider her an EE, with dreams of it being a porcelain OEGB :)
 
Bottom right is Pyncheon. Top Mottled OEGB. Middle is either White OEGB or possibly EE. I've got this picture with each one numbered. I am not at all familiar with the different colors except for the obvious ones. See what you think after I get it loaded. Thank you for this!

1 - Mottled OEGB
2 - White OEGB or EE
3 - White Frizzled Cochin
4 - Silver Duckwing OEGB Pullet (coloring of neck and body match, but in all honesty, I'm not 100% sure, just very hopeful. I'll try to get a close up soon)
5 - Mille Fleur D’Uccle
6 - Pyncheon
7 - Self Blue OEGB
8 - ? OEGB Cockerel (Brown & Black)
9 - ? OEGB Cockerel (Has white speckles, but mostly black, gray, and a little bit of brown throughout)
10 - ??? EE (although I'd be absolutely over the moon with delight if she's a porcelain OEGB, but if I'm being realistic, I doubt it, as we've spoken before, that isn't something typically found in the TSC Bantam bin)

Thoughts?
