So yeah we had to stop by, because the last bantam shipment had polish chickies but I passed on them(hoping they would get more in), but today they got in a new shipment of the little suckers, and we stopped by to see what they had. well I know for sure that one is a black silkie bantam and I had to get it!! but I need help with the other 5. three of them are all the same for the most part....was hoping they would be some sort of splash polish but they don't seem to have enough of a puff ball on the tops of their heads. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Chickie #1 (my son's pick)

chickies #2, 3 and 4 all seem to be the same breed and they have 5 toes on each foot like a silkie *****MOTTLED HOUDAN IS THE WINNING BREED ANSWER!! Thank you all for your help****

I am jealous that your TSC has mottled houdan chicks! I got one last year...so now I have a lonely hen

I went today and there were only a few varieties - no houdans. I was very disappointed, but came home with 6 chicks anyways, haha.

you're not all that far away from us! I don't know when they will get another shipment in...but I can't say I won't go back to see if they will get more. we were looking in the cackle catalog and our chicks look EXACTLY LIKE THE MOTTLED HOUDANS!! that's enough for me to believe it! they are going to look so cool!

I tried going on Privet hatchery's website, but no pics or lists of breeds they have...just to order their catalog. that is where TSC gets there chickies from (way out in NEW MEXICO)

if I end up with an 2 boys, you want one?
