Just WHAT do I have here!!

[NC Chicken Gal]

Hi Y'all,

This is my fist time uploading pics so I hope it works right!

So, this is my white crested black polish banty. I thought he was a he now I am thinking he is actually a she...what do y'all think?

...aannnnndddd, these are my two silkies, I was hoping you tell if they are roos or pullets and if the black is a black or the black is a blue!

OK, just a few more. My WONDERFUL DH bought a few biddies from some woman that lives down the road. She couldn't tell him what exactly they were, just that they were 4 or 5 different kinds of chickens all mixed up and they are good brown egg-layers. Hoping you can maybe help out here to. Maybe WHAT they be or if they are girls or roos One I THINK my be a BR, but I am new to this and don't know!

I have 2 that look just like this....I call them the twins

This one looks like the BR to me, but again, I dunno:/

And this one...no clue what-so-ever but pretty sure it is a roo

All the rest (my RIR, americanas & buffs) I bought at the feed store as pullets and am 100% sure thats what I got...though I think one of my RIR is actually a NHR!!

Thanks for any help you can lend

not too bad for fisrt time posting pics except the bottom 2 pics got mixed up! it is the bottom one that I think might be the BR

From the top down.

Roo
silkies unknown
mutt twins look like a blue barred color.
Mutt2 looks like barred rockXbuff cross
BR

A little note
Hatchery RIR are bred for egg laying, so color can be light.
Hatchery "Americana" aren't really Ameraucana. Most people call the hatchery "Americana" Easter Eggers.

Thanks for the reply. So, do you think the mutts are hens or roos?

 

[danielbrown]

how old are they?

 

[sloallie10]

The last one, that you think is a BR, is a cukkoo maran.
NOTE: the white legs.
Oh, and most likely a roo, because of the lighter barring.

And the polish looks like a pullet to me.

They are probably about 9-10 weeks old. I can't remember exactly when we got them, but I do know it was around the first of May and they were a day old.

One vote for banty roo, one for pullet...any others??

Also, can anyone else weigh in on my CM/BR??? Whaddya think? I was hoping for CM Pullet...I want chocolate eggs

[Dustin Biery]

the CM is a pullet. Color isn't near light enough for a male.

 

[NC Chicken Gal]

Yeah

Just the other day I was telling DH I wanted a CM!!! From now on, at least that one is not mystery chick, but CM girlie!!

Next challange....Banty, it he a he or is he a she???
