Three chicks dropped off almost on the doorstep. Little information on this, but bantam size maybe Silkie (feathered feet extra toe banded face and tufted head), other black chick I have not a clue (some lateral leg feathers) and yellow chick maybe Cornish Cross (much bigger, eats a lot, sits a lot)


Bantam Silkie?

THANK YOU.
 
1st chick is a black silkie. In the US we don't really have bantam or large fowl silkies. They are somewhere in between.

2nd chick I'm not sure on. Was thinking probably an Australorp but with little feather stubs you might have lucked out and gotten a Black, Birchin, or Black Copper Marans.

3rd chick is probably a little cornish cross.
 
3rd one, just judging by size and feathering, looks like a cornish X to me...seems like someone went to TSC and got in over their heads and needed to get out of the situation, hence you being a new-found rescuer!
 
Thanks so much everyone. I think, as well, someone went to TSC and then thought later. Can anyone tell genders yet? I am a little uncertain of exact age, but I think 3 or 4 weeks old.... I think I heard Silkie genders are hard to ID.
