Help me ID the breeds of the bantam chicks!

Forgot to get pictures! But will get them up- I promise! And yes, there is indeed a silkster in there, hehe...I was lucky to grab up the last one! I love silkies.
I do think that number two at least is a mille fleur! I asked a TSC girl that has some adult ones and she thinks they looked like that when they were tiny. Maybe the white chicklet in pic 3 is a cornish bantam? I really want to know what number 4 though!

Well, they're growing up quick -- so I'll get some new photos. They're getting in more wingding feathers, so that will help clue us in!

I took a while, but it better to see them now with some more feathers. Let me know what you think!


Millie Fleur?? - I betcha! I have three others if so!

And one of the silky! Isn't he/she a dandy? I wonder how long it take me to figure out the gender?... Probably to the point of crowing/laying, lol

the last one looks a bit like a silkie... how are it's feathers..?

the other's look like OEGB, but the yellow legs... well, and the shape of the beaks... i dunno... look very different to me for some reason... you're gonna have to wait and see i guess...
 
You are right -- that last one is a little silky fellow! I agree on at least 2 probably being OEGs --- but who knows. They better hurry and feather out! It is driving me nuts with curiosity.

Here are two more that I just picked up today to help fill a request for a friend. (Friend wanted four....but six was the min. at our TSC)

The poor little light one has a sore nose!

Any guesses? I will get better photos once again once they feather a little.


I was looking through my Murry McMurray catalog...and the brown/black looks like a Quail Antwerp Belgian

while I think the other one might be a Silver Sebright?? (He does have the little leopard pelt looking back)

Both are clean legged.


The McMurray catalog has been very helpful lately with these tiny brandless banties! I wonder if I got these two right though....
We'll see!
