I am brand new to raising chickens. My son's second grade class had a hatching project in April and only three chicks hatched. We ended up with all three. I am already loving them! I have posted a question on the two that I can't quite figure out yet. Here's a picture of all three, a hilarious little group if you ask me!

You have a turken(naked neck chicken), a white crested Polish, not sure on the last one, could be a Barred Rock but, leg color is wrong.

Hello, and welcome to BYC! Yes, I see the naked neck one in there. The other one that @drumstick diva mentioned with the off-colored leg's is probably from the cross that they used with the turken. In those crosses some will hatch out with neck feather, and some won't. It depend's on if the chick had the gene passed onto them or not from the parent bird's.

First off...! I hope that you enjoy this site as much as the rest of us do! I have learned SOOO much from this site, hope you do to! Your chicks are SOOO adorable. the one in the middle is my absolute favorite! It needs a super cute name like Frankie or something lol. I agree with drumstick diva on breeds! You need to post more pics of the babies, we'd all LOVE to see them!

I did post the naked neck and the polish white crested there. I was more curious about their gender than anything. I did get one reply from someone. Thanks!
