Need to know breeds of my hatchery chicks

[Tracydr]

The first one is interesting with the gray color and black skin. No feather on legs or silky look to it at all. How many toes?

the first looks like a self blue or a lavander. maybe a old english or something else. cant tell bantam or not. maybe orphington??

Just 4. She does look kind of EE to me, but no muff at all. She's a very smooth bird.

I was thinking maybe GLC. I think I want some breeder quality now. I did hatch one out a while back, but it was one of my cat victims. I've had a really bad year with cats here, no matter what I do. They've even come in and grabbed them while I had them in the yard, with me right there.

So is Snack an OEGB? That's all I've seen for her. I'll try to get Breakfast to hold still better when it quiets down in here. My grand daughter thinks she has to be right in the middle of the chicks whenever I'm doing anything with them. LOL I'd really like to know what these other 2 are for sure. The suspence has been killing me!

I just thought of something.I don't think her legs are extra long, but hmmmm. Yeah I have to get a better pic of her.

i dont think the frist chick is an EE. and the last chick could be an EE or an old english. the 2nd and 3rd are gold laced cochins. rhe first is a self blue or lavander bantam. but idk breed. id say wait a few weeks till they fearher out more and see if people can telll then. lots of people think EE for the first becaue of Leg coloring. but i have had many pure breeds with green and blue legs

So do I and I keep looking at her and then looking through my breeds. Snack has yellow legs, no muff and just doesn't scream EE to me either. She does look somewhat like my Bantam Wellies as chicks, so could be what she is, though she and Breakfast are extremely tiny. I don't have any Wellie chicks to compare he too right now.

snack look Old English game bantam. Breakfast id just wait and see what she turns out looking like. really hard to tell from pics. lol id just keep llooking up breeds as she grows and seee if u sind any that match. when the chicks are older and ur still not sure what they are post here again and see if anyone know then.

If its a bantam I bet your right on the Self Blue Old english, I was looking on Ideal and the discription of the chick looks Identical to the little chick.

OK this is what I thought she was. Actually what I was hoping she was. I'll get a better pic of her in a little while. I only have my phone and on the phone that pic looks soooo clear. Figures!

Snack kinda looks like she might be a spangled something or other? What feathers she has on her wings kinda look like a SS type of feathering. But not sure what type would have yellow legs?
