My broody recently hatched 7 poults. She’s a great mama and the poults are all so adorable. I can guess at most of their varieties, except for this one. I assumed it was a bronze when it hatched, but I’m now realizing its stripes are very light compared to its 2 bronze siblings. it could be from either of my hens, as this one was on both of their eggs. Mama #1 is an Auburn, I doubt she’s it’s mama because it seems way to small to come out of one of her eggs. Mama #2 is a Rusty Black, her eggs are very small and I think this baby is hers because it’s tiny, (the Rusty blacks mother is the Auburn.) the dad is a Blue Red Bronze. It looks kind of like an auburn, but not like how Mama #1 looked as a poult. It’s very high energy so these are the best pictures I could get. It’s 2 days old.

It has wings now if that’s of any help. I guess it could just be a very light Red Bronze? But it doesn’t even have the same wing pattern as it’s bronze siblings.
