Mystery Bantam TSC Chicks! What Did I Get???

[koakritters]

Grabbed these guys last Friday, No clue what they are! Or how old either. They claimed they had just come in, but they had a lot of wing feathers already, and I have 3 that I hatched Wednesday that have less feathers, so..

Breeds? Ages? Thanks!

Paisley


Trinity- This one had been there a couple weeks, still no clue how old, she(?) does have 5 toes under those feathers!


Betty Lou- perhaps bantam cochin??


Ramona


Tessa- another bantam Cochin??? I got 2 that look just like this.


Guesses on age, breed, sex would be great, thanks!!!

Do astrolorps and wyandottes come in bantam sizes? These guys came out of the bantam bin.

I know Wyandottes can be bantams but I have never seen one in a feed store. Ask your store what hatchery they get their chicks from and you can narrow it down to certain breeds.

What kind of comb does each chick have? That can help a lot in identifying the breed.

Never thought about that, thanks!!!

Does anyone know if all TSC stores get their chicks from Mt. Healthy??? I know some do...

Some do. I don't know what state you're in - some have contracts with Privett as well, possibly others. Unfortunately, Mt Healthy does not disclose what bantams they do have...
