I bought some more baby chicks at rual king the other day, the tags said that they were new and rare breeds. Curious if anyone’s heard of or knows anything about them. The first picture is a Blue Plymouth with the other 4 circled in the back, and the second picture circled is calico princess.

Blue Rocks are certainly quite rare....the only hatchery I'm aware of carrying them is Townline. :) Same breed as Barred Rocks, just different color. Pretty good layers, and personable natures!

From my understanding, Calico Princesses are a specialty hybrid designed for egg production and hardy qualities. Lovely birds, too! :love

Please post better photos of your other chicks without the red bulb if you're needing identification on them.
You can use a warm paper towel or washcloth to very gently wipe at the chicks bottom. Don't pull as you can cause injury to the chick.
Enjoy your new babies! I just got blue plymouths myself and I love them!
