Hoping they’re old enough to ID now.

They look like splash Anconas to me.
With all due respect, Splash Ancona are not carried by any hatchery. A true "Splash Ancona" doesn't even exist. There are Blue Mottled (so splash mottled as well) in Germany, Holland, and Belgium but I can find no evidence they are even in the United States. While there could be project birds out there, they're not going to be from any hatchery and certainly not a hatchery TSC would buy from. Sapphire Splash is the simplest answer as they match these birds' characteristics and are readily carried by Hoover's.

They seem alot more slender then a Sapphire Gem, so that's where the idea of Splash Ancona came to mind.
