I have 13 pullets 6 is browns, 2 Easter eggers, 1 barred rock, 1 Rhode Island red, 1 black sex link, 1 welsummer, 1 white legbar and 1 fools laces Wyandotte. This is my first year with birds we started in March

Welcome. Just wondering..... What's a "fools laces Wyandotte"?

It's an old thread but we're here. I personally only know chickens & a little about quail.

I was wondering the same thing? Whats Fools Lace?

Also @Faraday40 I posted the pics of the chick I think looks like your grey brown chick. What do you think?

It does look similar.
Mine had a face mask when hatched (1st pic) & a little less brown. 2nd pic was 2 weeks old.


BTW- I've had some orp chicks turn out like this from past hatches. They basically looked black at hatch, then grew in feathers with brown lacing around the edges. I always assumed mine were mixes, so I never took the time to grow any out. I now wonder what they would have looked like.

I also snapped some pics of my Juvies. They are filling out nicely and my mottled orp pullet is a big girl. Hoping to get some more flecks of color on the Jubilee after her first molt. And the russian has great color and the muff is nothing but fluff!
The 3 pullets are about 2-3 weeks older than my handsome Black orp cockerel. He is going to be a looker, just like his Dad. I hope he will earn the name McDreamy II

Edited to add: These 4 finally went in on their own last night. It only took about 5 weeks!

I personally know very little about ducks. Occasionally a few mallards visit my yard, but they fly away as soon as I get near.
