| Some chicks were more cooperative with the photo-shoot than others... |
I’m guessing Marans mama for this one!So, I have just hatched 7 mystery chicks mixed in with 3 pure bred Lavender Orpingtons (10 chicks total). For fun, I am trying to figure out the breed of each chick and would love any input folks feel like offering (or feel free to just enjoy watching me struggle
).
I have pictures of the chicks and the eggs they came from. All mystery chicks had an Ameraucana father, the options for mother include: Ameraucana, French Copper Maran, Cream Legbar, Buff Orpingtons, Polish, Red Star Australorps, Easter Egger, or Olive Egger (yes, I know these last two are mixed breeds...). There is also a slim chance of a parent that is something else as the lady I got the eggs from has already added a couple extra hen options to the original list as she remembers them...
So, without further ado, meet chicks A-L (minus G and J which were eggs that proved to be infertile). Each gets their own post because this is a lot of photos...
Asa:
I'm honestly stumped on this one, none of the breeds she listed have chicks that look like this (at least on the Meyer Hatchery chick ID page). Would welcome ideas!
