I bought these chicks earlier this month but I don't know exactly how old they are. They already had some feathers when I got them. I have another brood box full of pullets that I ordered from MPC and they were a day old when I got them and much, much smaller than these TSC chicks, so I'm hoping they're old enough some of you chicken experts might be able to tell me something (anything!) about them.
I have no idea what some of these are, but I've taken guesses as best I could. I know NOTHING about sexing chicks, but if anyone can tell I'm definitely interested in that as well.
I realize this is ton of pictures. Sorry! I thought maybe the more angles the better.
To start I have three assorted bantams which were straight run.
This one looked exactly like a chipmunk when I first got it. Not so much anymore though.
The next two bantams seem to be the same kind of chicken, just different colors of it. Cochin's perhaps?
Next we have three assorted standard size "pullets". I'm skeptical, but I'm not sure what's making me feel that way. I hope they really are pullets though. Two appear to be the same type, and the third I have no idea. I figure it might be hard to tell as she's just a white chicken, but I do have white leghorns and they didn't look like her as babies. So...
Longest neck of all my birds!!
