Hi BYC Friends!

I saw in another post that it is possible to determine the breed of chicks! I am so pleasantly surprised! Please see pictures below, I hope they are helpful. (Excuse the dirty feet, we were cleaning them when we took the pictures.)

That looks like my buff orpington, but it's hard to tell when it's still a baby, maybe a week or so old.
 
Thank you, Saris, for the fast reply.

. I'll do a little research on the buff Orpington and update with pictures in a week.
 
Thank you, both! And thanks for the approximate age. I have had them for 1 week and was told they were two weeks old when I purchased them. After looking at some pictures I was not convinced they were two weeks last week. Thank you for the affirmation that they are younger.

Will research both the Orpington breed and the sexlinked. Either sounds like a good fit, since I don't plan to breed, only collect eggs both are friendly and good egg layers based upon what I have read so far. Thanks so much for the feedback. I'll send updated pictures in a week.
