Help with breed... PIC HEAVY

[CHIC]

These girls came from my MPC rainbow pullet special, Any idea on the breed? Any experts out there?

Wyandottes - great birds!

How can hatcheries send you a cross? Isn't that false advertisement? I am not trying to be picky but I don't expect to get a bunch of crosses from a hatchery. I wasn't expecting the greatest specimens of their breeds but I at least want purebreds! Am I silly?

They are pure Silver Laced Weandotte,but because they are eb based when babies have brown tint

Ok, people think this is a GLW...

Why aren't my SLWs feathering out as pretty? They are kinda ugly right now....

 

[CHIC]

What does eb based mean?

My hatchery SLW feathered out ugly with the white lines. Now she is beautiful, I think as they mature the white lacing comes out better. Just give them time. Most chicks go through an ugly phase.
