mystery chicks...any ideas?

[artsyrobin]

hi everyone, these three were in the clearance sale at the feed store- the first two have feathered legs, and were the 'rare breed' bin, the other no one knew breed...

the first two had awful pasty butt and pasty tail- of course i couldn't just leave them...

The first two are partridge cochins. Blackbird12 is right, I googled several pictures and all of them match.

The third is probably not a golden lakenvelder. See here: http://www.feathersite.com/Poultry/CGK/Lakens/GoldLakChik2wks.JPEG

I'll keep thinking...

This is interesting, look at the babies in the picture.

It is Not a GLW, The chicks have patterns on their heads, and also have light colored chests...

Sorry, that doesn't look like it. The wings on the GSH are too patterned, don't you think? I see white patches on the GSH, but not on the mystery chick.

Actually, The OPs chick's wings look Very close to the GSH chick's wings. The OP's chick's wings might be a bit darker tho...
