Still thinking Ameraucana (which is better than an orp if you ask me ) Also thinking cockerel with that comb.Updated pictures of the first chick. Not much change but much more feathering out in the last week than in the entire month before and the comb is turning pink so I'm guessing it's a cockerel, whatever breed it is.

Interesting. The second chick is actually blue, not lavender. Definitely keep updating if you can.Updated pictures: Still not many changes. They're about eight weeks old now. One is definitely a cockerel. No muffs or beard to be seen. The first picture is a comparison of the first chick (the most questionable one) and another definite Ameraucana cockerel that I have who is the same age. They were the same size when I brought them home but the size difference is huge now. Hard to tell but the black cockerel is four times bigger.

First one is a blue ameraucana. The second is a lavender ameraucana mix. Maybe lav ameraucana x lav Orpington.This is this second chick at almost ten weeks now. Starting to show small muffs/beard. The lavender cockerel still has no signs of a beard/muff and has grayish legs, not the black or dark gray I'd expect of the breed but that could change.
