My babies growing up and still don't know for sure my breed

[4hooves&featheredfriends]

The first bird is a Danish Brown Leghorn - here is a pic of mine at 5 weeks;

I refer to them as my velocoraptors - just the way they move and hold their heads. Mine are quite friendly and actually will perch in my lap.

 

[Year of the Rooster]

1. Welsummer. If it has white earlobes then Brown Leghorn
2. Light Brahma
3. Dark Cornish or Gold Laced Wyandotte
4. Silver Laced Wyandotte
5. Silver Spangled Hamburg

I had thought that #5 was a silver spangled hamburg also.

Just wondering, brown leghorns, If that is what #1 is, do they not like to go outside? I have the last two days made a place for them to be outside for part of the day and they will not go out and when I put them out they go directly back inside. They don't seem to want anything to do with the outside. The Delawares, RIR, Buff O's, wyandottes love it out there.

My brown leghorns love to free range, and throw a fit if they don't get to. But they're also not the most outgoing birds in the flock. Give her time, she'll get used to it and come to expect it at least as much of the others. They're very active birds, in my little bit of experience.
