My son brought this home.....

[gander007]

I would have been one of the boys who brought at least one home
as they were a nickel back then and a nickel was a bit of money as
I could have gotten a large candy bar for a nickel ....

Now your child needs to get a small cage and take care of it and
learn how to feed it and water

The teacher chaperoning these kids was furious. The principle however told the kids that if they could smuggle the chicks onto the bus, he would store them in his office until school was over.

The PRINCIPAL!?! How irresponsible of the head administrator! And what An enabler! He/she is probably a BYC'r!

The breed is a White Faced Spanish.

What kind of breed is this?

Maybe a Dutch Bantam, Speckled Sussex or Welsummer. Those breeds are your best bet.

Agreed!

Quote: I agree Welsumer or speckled sussex, however, if from a feed store not likely they carry sussex, so probably Welsumer.

Welsummers chicks are brown and buff rather than the dark yellow shown here.
