Identifying 2 3 weeks old chicks

[Aeobrix]

Officially 3 weeks old today! Torchic (the yellow one) is definitely more into the photos than Ziggy.

Update- I know I’m probably still too early but could someone help me identify the breed and sex of these chicks? Trying to be patient but… our whole family is a bit overexcited.

Yellow one still looks like an Easter Egger, and the black one might be some sort of game mix. Both look pullet-ish so far!

If the black one hatched out of a blue egg, it is probably an Easter Egger as well. Where did you get them? They could just be Barnyard Mixes if they aren’t from a feed store or hatchery.

My son said Ziggy (the black one) came from a pink egg. His class got the eggs from a local university’s 4H club.

Torchic (the yellow one) came from a “big white egg according to my son. His class hatched the eggs in their science class. They received the eggs from a local university’s 4H club.

They may just be mixes.

Which is totally fine! We’ve been searching and trying to see what they look like, which has been a lot of fun. Our kids have enjoyed looking up different breeds and seeing if our chicks have similar traits and whatnot.

Oh, those are lovely chicks! I would say that they're mixes but once they feather out more, you might get a better idea of what they're mixed with!

Thank you! I’ll continue to post updates and ask as we’re new to chick ownership.
