New chicks that we got from Atwood's *UPDATED PICS PAGE 3*

[Illia]

Just as a reminder - D'Uccles are not clean faced and do not start out that color.

We're confident of the following so far:

1. Golden Laced Polish

2. Buff Brahma

3. Mottled Cochin

4. ?

5. Austalorp or JG?

6. Silver Laced Polish

7. ?

8. BSL

Any more ideas would be appreciated!

I really think #2 is a partridge cochin... lots of foot feathering and the wing tips look partridge.

I don't have any idea what they are---but other's guesses sound good. I just think the yellow and black bantam is so adorable!

Beautiful babies!

#1- Gold Laced Polish or Possibly a Golden Brabanter (They tend to have smaller, less visible crests)

#2- Milie Fluer D'uccle Bantam

#3- Mottled Cochin bantam or a Mottled D'uccle

#4- looks like a light brahma bantam, can I have pics of the little one's wing feathers?

#5- Looks like either an Australorp, Jersey Giant, or Black Minorca. Is it bantam or standard?

#6- Silver Laced polish or an Alpenzeller Spitzhauben

#7- Golden Duckwing OEGB or Cream Lightbrown Dutch bantam

Good luck

I'll take some more pics of the wings and try to get a better picture of the black one. It came out of a standard size bin that was suppose to be full of RIR and BSL's. However, this one looked different from all of the rest. Atwood's said these came from Ideal. It is the same size as the BSL chick. The BSL chick though has lots of brown in it's feathering and especially the face. So did the rest of the ones in the bin with them but this does not have any at all. Different colored beak and feet as well with more yellow on its body.

It could be a BSL, it just has less brown than the others...

I agree with GardeNerd- definitey don't think the chipmunk is a Speckled Sussex. (No hatcheries offer this breed as a bantam.) Though the Mille Fleur d'Uccle may be another colour form.

Whoa, rewind! Illia's right, that chick isn't bearded, and doesn't appear to have a single comb... I'm thinking possible Buff Brahma bantam?
