Ideal Warming Chicks

[montyhp]

Please help ID my ideal warming chicks. Hatched 3 Dec 08 so they are 3 1/2 weeks old. I ordered 13 Barred Rocks and got 4 of these fellas. I am thinking Buff Orpington. Could be Buff Rocks, though. This guy liked to peck the camera lens. He is going to be fiesty. I was just going to put them all in the freezer, but now a friend wants one and I may keep one for the girls' entertainment.

Thanks

I would venture to say Buff Rocks since the feet are yellow. But could be Buff Orpingtons. He sure is cute!

Fellow South Texan. Where are you located? I am just north of Victoria.

If that chick is only 3 1/2 weeks I would say it is a roo. That comb and waddle is huge for the age.

There's no question that he's a roo, the question was what breed is he?

Well he was a packing peanut so of course Roo, I would Say Buff Rock because of the yellow legs as well.

Forgot to add!

What color would his legs be if he were a BO?

I guess we are neighbors as I am one county east from you.
