Awww cute babies! Speaking of babies, my broody Australorp hen hatched out 2 GLC chicks this morning!

I set 2 eggs, and they hatched 2 days early thanks to the heat lol

I ordered an assortment so I have no idea. I have posted here for people to guess https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=7108598#p7108598. I ordered from Ideal to take advantage of a 85 cents each special! Yes I know they are there... I drive by the hatchery all the time. Not my first choice. I only order from them when I want small batch ordered through a local feed store.

Lol I had one set hatch 3 days early under a silkie this time of year. I didn't expect that early of course so I missed it lol.

It looks like you have some silkies in there. They will have black feet and extra toes. I can't tell on the others. You may have to post some more pictures of them seperately. Seriouly .85! What was shipping on them?

I've have posted separate pics here https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=7108598#p7108598 I have one silkie. It is either white or buff. Silkies are my favorites and I was hoping for more but oh well lol. Shipping was about $10, total was $32.

My Ideal bantam assortment arrived Friday!

Would anyone like to help me guess as to the breeds?

I tried to match like chicks together. They at least have the same comb if they are together.

#1 Single comb

#2 Single comb

#3 There actually two that are like this but the other one is smaller, has pinker legs and beak, and does not have a single comb. Edit add picture of second one.

#4 Is a white silkie and I am desperately hoping it's a girl, but he already has an impressive comb for a chick and is larger then the other chicks, we'll see lol

#5 Single comb

#6 Single comb

#7 Single comb

#8 Single comb

#9 Single comb

#10 Non single comb. No comb showing, rose comb?

#11 This little guy has stripes on his back which make him different from the #10s Single comb

#12 Non single comb, Small ridge of comb, pea comb?

#13 This little guy is the one I am mot curious about. See the spots on his head? Non single comb, flat, pea comb?

#14 Single comb

#15 This little guy is the tiniest. Single comb. Edit size comparison to silkie

#16

#17 He would not hold still for anything! He has clean legs. Single comb Edit: another pic

I took these pictures with my new phone, I can't believe how good the quality is!
